I'm ashamed to admit that I just learned about this tragedy a little while ago - I don't watch TV during the day and didn't log on to my PC until noon. Needless to say, I was absolutely horrified by what's happened.
My thoughts and prayers are with all of the UK and specifically those in London. It's sad that it takes horrors like this to remind us how strong the human spirit can be.

I'm glad people are all right. I've been very worried. I took a trip to London back in December of 1998, so some of the scenes of the surrounding areas of what got hit, are familiar to me.
I heard the news as it first broke around 2am PST. I didn't go to bed until 5am because I was so worried about everyone. I too shook my head and wondered what's thiw world is coming too. It's sad, but I also know the English people will pull through...just like the New Yorkers did over here in the United States.

My thoughts and prayers are with you london folcs as well. Even though you may not be hurt it hurts to think that someone would do this on purpose. For what ever reason. I am sickened by that. It's 9-11 all over again for me. I hope everyone is doing well!!

We just had a very close call with some relatives... spent the last few hours trying to track people down. Thankfully my aunt and uncle, who were the only people actually injured by the attack, are now stable  My thoughts are with all of the UK and specifically the victims of these horrific attacks  This is just sickening... utterly sickening  Sara
Death: Easy, Bill. You'll give yourself a heart attack and ruin my vacation.

It's good to hear that your relatives are all accounted for, Sorcha! Was worried for a while there on IRC.
My thoughts and prayers are with everyone affected by these attacks.

Another terrible and utterly senseless tragedy. My thoughts go out to those unfortunate people who were at the heart of the attacks. That bus! What a horrible sight!  I hope all FoLCs and their loved ones who were in London this morning are okay.
Lois: Well, I like my quirks. I think they make me unique.
Clark: You certainly are unique.
Clark: You're high maintenance, you know that?
Lois: But I'm worth it!

My thoughts and prayers are with all UKers. I can't believe this has happened and I just pray it is over. My sister is over in London on vacation, but she is okay. I pray for all the families and friends of people who lost their lives and for all the injured and London in general.

Another senseless act of terror has shaken us all. My heart goes out to all those affected by this atrocity. This is not the first time crazed aggressors have tested the courage of the British people. The steadfastness of your response is legend. My thoughts will be with you.

Looks like someone's setting up a blog thing they hope to be a voluntary roll call. List of Confirmed Survivors

I'm glad to know you London FoLCs are okay! I has been watching BBC World since yesterday morning; I was scared for my cousin who lives in London. She was able to phone to her mom early in the morning, and so we had known she's okay, even if she said to my brother yesterday night that it was a closer call than what she said to her mom and dad; she was near Algate, but fortunately she had only the problem of a four hour walk to home.
My heart is with the Londoners.
