UPDATE: At tealfroglette's suggestion, I have changed the style of this entry so that the murderer's name is NOT in bold, and his victims' names are. I apologize for giving the impression that I thought he deserved more emphasis than the people he killed. (2006-10-27)

I think you're misreading my intention. His name is in bold because I'm not merely transcribing the photograph; his name is in bold because it's new information. I put him at the bottom of the list for two reasons -- one, because it's in chronological order, and two, because he belongs at the bottom for what he did.

However, my intention doesn't prevent you from feeling hurt, and I'm sorry about that.

i'm glad you explained your intention to me, because i really couldn't figure out why you had done that other than the above reasons. it just doesn't make sense to me that you'd not understand the ramifications of bolding one person above another. If you fixed it (i'm on dialup so it's slow) then i'm really glad you did so.

And i guess new information is in the 'time' of the reader... the newness of it.

Some days i'm not on the pc at all, and with tornado warnings etc don't have the news on except for the noaa weather which doesn't include most daily events.

I did not follow the terrorizing trail of rolling b/c i wanted to put that fear and scared hunted animal part of my life behind me. he was after short brownhaired girls and i had to go to night classes at norman, across the street from regular campus with no extra UPD help. We asked for it and were denied by UPD. I'm sure there's a letter on campus somewhere with me begging for help to my car at nine pm because Dr. Todd wouldn't walk us, and we couldn't park in the norman hall lot for the start of class.

So it's a lot of 'people didn't care about us women and men besides being hunted that make me upset. That doens't usually play a part in the reactions i have now, but maybe it did? i can't know for certain.

The bolding just felt like way bad media 'get attention' no matter who we hurt type of stuff.

I've worked at the CIRCA lab in Norman Hall. I wouldn't have wanted to walk that close to Frat Row at night anyway, if I were as bodaciously cute as you are.

Norman is nowhere near frat row afaik. I'm confused what you mean... Even the Commuter lot when i was there was across and down from the JWayneReitz Union. That would have been the closest parking 'on campus' at four forty five pm giving me enough time to get to a five pm starting block of classes at norman hall.

I know there were some other unpaved commuter lots under trees which i think are now buildings by the 'bandshell' if that still even exists.

On the last tour, Ed les, kattyt.great, Toad, Jesse and i went to Weil, Reitz Union, CSE, GPA but not anywhere near the bandshell.

We all really wanted permission to park at Weil. We were coming from classrooms scattered all over Alachua county or our homes and it was fairly freaky.

And thanks for the cute compliment, *blush*

Oh, I remembered a lot of Greek housing down there. Guess I'm misremembering...

sorority row is near norman, not frat row. and i thought the circa lab in norman closed before i started working for them in late 1988, although maybe it was converted to a private lab and not staffed by bvi's. weil hall was, at the time i worked there, the closest public lab to frat row.

we had a lab at norman h all with apple two e's and some pcs. the pcs were horribly infected by some virus that would transfer from disk to other places. This happened in 89,9,91, or 92. i finished my master's degree at uf in 92 maybe. I froget. i was working and getting the degree, then left g'ville.
Maybe there are more sorority houses now closer in than when i was there. there were frat houses (but not frat row)much further north on the road because i lived at college terrace at one point and had to walk by them to get home.
