this is distressing. I also believe it's a hoax, and we may never know who did it. Given that, I hate to see folks getting upset over it. It seems like things in babble-land will never calm down again.
Part of me still reacts like it's real-- a shocking suicide report, which brings back unpleasant real-life memories. I can't help that response-- it may just be permanent trauma imprint or something. But after that I just have to ask myself-- do I want to get upset over a prank? I don't. That diffuses it for me. I hope that others can also find ways to limit their reaction to this provocation.
