London UK was the target of terrorist attacks today. 37 people have died (so far) as a result of this attack.  Various terrorist groups, including Al Qaeda, have claimed responsibility for the attack.

 It's easy, even tempting, when one lives in another country or another continent to think of the whole thing as very far away. Such mindless destruction and hatred can have far-reaching effects.  Not all that far from the attack is where WindowBlinds, WindowFX, IconPackager, Stardock Central, Theme Manager, and other programs that are used by millions of people are developed.  Moreover, popular community helper, GreenReaper, had just left the London area to come to the US today. 

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the families of the victims.  One can only hope that the monsters who were involved in this senseless, hateful act are able to be brought to justice.
