No matter what one writes about the Amish, one never really can comprehend the Amish until they've worked, walked and talked with them. They're not easy to distill into a few paragraphs or pithy sentences.

There are lot of things I admire about the Amish.

I have been so depressed and upset about this story all day that I haven't even been able to post. Prayers for them. This is hideous.

No, I imagine they aren't...
Thumper, there is some discrepancy as far as how many children have actually passed on today. The Associated Press is reporting three children, and the gunman, and WGAL-TV out of Lancaster is reporting 3 schoolgirls, 1 teacher's aide, and the gunman deceased as well as 8 in critical condition. LancasterOnline is reporting 5 deceased and 5 at hospitals. Do you by chance know the correct numbers, or what is being reported locally, or which station/media source tends to be the most accurate in your area? I really hate to keep passing on bad information especially about something such as this...
