Don't belong. Dangerous, like you. Can't be controlled. Can't be trusted. Everyone could just go on without me and not have to worry. People could be what they wanted to be. Could be with the people they wanted. Live simple. No secrets.

sj, thanks for letting us know. I'm very glad to hear it!
I'm at the point where I've heard from just about everyone who would conceivably have been there or nearby, and am resisting emailing all of my friends who live 2 hours away from the city. But, damn, I just wanna wrap everyone up in a giant hug and keep them safe forever.

You can see it in the video. The sports producer who was taping the finish line has the whole thing on tape. It's a little hard to watch because you can hear people screaming in pain right after.
