Going Postal, again

From the Ass.Press, via Yahoo!:

"A former postal worker who had been put on medical leave for psychological problems shot five people to death at a huge mail-processing center and then killed herself in what was believed to be the nation's deadliest workplace shooting ever carried out by a woman.

The attack Monday night was also the biggest bloodbath at a U.S. postal installation since a massacre 20 years ago helped give rise to the term "going postal.""
Holy Crap!  Goleta is the hometown of UCSB, and this facility is just a couple of blocks off campus.  Good thing she offed herself rather than going on a worse rampage.
