London Train Bombing

My wife has a friend who lives in London. We stayed at her house when we visited there two years ago. I found out yesterday that she was actually riding on one of the trains that got bombed. She's fine, and apparently in relatively good humor about the whole thing.

I'm finding it hard to absorb this information. It somehow seems related to when the tidal wave destroyed the hotel we had been staying at in Thailand only three weeks after we left.
