I love your essay and the Chocolate Taoist too much to offer my own sentiments on the subject of the murder event because I was forever impacted by The Tale of Two Cities when I was in high school and cannot take the side of outrage against Luigi at this point in time. Chaos will ensue and maintain until there are "attractors" that can manage to bring Order to the system we all must endure somehow for now. In the meantime I offer sorrow, tears, grief and compassion.

Such an excellent post — so different from every other commentary on this sad and horrific event.
Great post and commentary. I'm a fan of The Girl With the Dragon Tatoo series, and the comparison strikes a deep cord.
