Haven't been able to check a TV yet, but that's encouraging to know everyone seems to be covering it.

Navy Seals infiltrated his camp in Pakistan. Apparently Bin Laden took up a rifle against the troops, but no US forces were harmed.
Excellent move on Obama's part, while he didn't establish the intelligence base he still took this lead beginning to end!

I finally got to see the recap of the President's address, as well as several other news programs covering his death, and I can't begin to describe how great it feels to actually hear somebody actually saying it

For us its a measure of justice for 9-11, for Britain its your subway attacks, for Spain the Madrid train attacks. This guy and his organization have killed so many around the world, Indonesia, Somalia, many other nations in Africa, attacks in Russia, so many Muslims killed by his people as well that this should be a day of celebration around the world.

I moved this to spare parts as it has nothing to do with Braille Scale modeling.
