A sad anniversary, it was 16 years ago today that 14 women at the engineering school at École Polytechnique in Montreal were murdered. The killer claimed that feminism ruined his life and that was enough of a reason for him to murder these women. The day still seems not that long ago, even though a lifetime of things has happened to us all since then. Just take a moment to think about 14 lives.

Keeping your readership up by reading your archives and whatnot. I like the site, although I find it a touch impersonal. Not a lot about you – not enough emo. You have to work that angst angle. :P
