Yesterday, I submitted a post regarding the loss of Luke Bucklin and his sons in a plane crash last week. (http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1861964). The show of support for the Bucklin family and crew at The Nerdery is absolutely amazing.To all of you in the HN community, thank you.

Thanks for the 'local' comment. There has been a ton of support here in the Twin Cities, as I'm sure you've seen. I'll be passing along the groundswell of support from HN to the team at The Nerdery. Thanks again.

Thanks for your response. Years ago I cut my SEO teeth with Eric Ward and Lance Loveday, two of your peers in the biz. Don't chat with Eric much, but had breakfast with Lance this past summer when he was in Minneapolis.

Seeing your reply reinforces what I've observed in amazement today.....we're all connected in some way, just trying to get by, do good work, and offer a helping hand whenever we can. It's a small world, indeed. Thanks much Rand - I'll pass this along.
