3. When you have 15-20 shooters like the Virginia Tech shooter,
and someone coordinating them in a heavily populated city, a lot of damage can be done. Sigh says they are from outside India.

2. It sounds like it is a ways away form being under control.
Things get stranger. This attack looked a bit more like some of the gun rampages we've seen on campus here, but coordinated and expanded to a city.
