GRAPHIC=VT Shooting It's been a long and emotional

day on the Virginia Tech campus as
thousands and thousands gather for
memorial services throughout the day.

ENG#=1 VO-NAT

VO-NAT The latest one happened this

evening on the Virginia Tech drill
field, where students gathered for a
candlelight vigil.

The service itself was brief,
but students stuck around for more than
an hour to reflect and to let the
nation know they are united.

Organizers were expecting more
than 40 thousand to show up.

While there's no exact
number....it looks like they came
pretty close.

around.....

In it, the boy accuses the
stepfather of murdering his dad......it
refers to the stepfather as a

pedophile...it's ten pages long

and there's a real sense of hatred
in the writing...in fact in one part,
the 13-year-old character repeats how

phrases plastered all over the
internet....TODAY, WE ARE ALL
HOKIES......if you'd like to see it
