Just got home here -- sorry to hear about it, sumi! Glad to hear you're safe.

That's not encouraging! (the phonemail!)
Ours is the same way. By the time the light indicating a voicemail starts blinking, the problem is often resolved (in today's case, the email server went awol for 2 hours.) It's really not efficient.

It sounds worse than what we've been hearing: [link]
The incident apparently happened around 3:15 p.m. Authorities confirm at tleast 3 people ahve been shot. According to the Kishwaukee Community Hospital website up to 15 victims are expected at the hospital.
A witness told WBBM a young man pulled out a shotgun and began firing inside a lecture hall. The shooting apparently took place during a geology class at Cole hall on the University's De Kalb campus.

Campus is secure - only essential personnel are to remain. I shall try to go home as soon as I can find a ride.

Or maybe I'm losing my hearing.
You know, your brain can compensate and start filtering it out after a while. It used to happen to me with the air raid sirens in Prague. It was kinda bizarre, because once it started, I could turn it on and off.
Hope you find a ride promptly.
