Note: I'm not sure I'll have time to keep this list current, so I suggest that you use this list to locate web resources, then bookmark them yourself. The YAHOO sites (the first two) are probably the best web locations for news items. There's been a massive exchange of information on the Internet about this event; the way people have utilitized the web today (3/27/97) to learn about the San Diego suicides would make for an intereresting story in itself...
