In case anyone is interested....here's a good LJ archiver. It downloads all your journal entries (automatically) and has export options. Makes archiving your LJ easy, I promise!
Posting this for posterity. Clarence, NY is only a few miles up Transit Rd from where I grew up in East Aurora. The only other event that has ever affected me more than this was 9/11. I'm stunned and saddened that this happened anywhere, but even more so that it happened in a place very familiar to me.
