been a year in the hatching. A diary believed to have been kept by Eric
Harris, aged 18, one of the two gunmen responsible for the shooting,
recorded daily, meticulous planing of the event from last April.
The sheriff Jefferson county, John Stone, said the preparations and
details outlined in the dairy extended to hand signals between Harris and
Dylan Klebold, aged 17 for is ease of communication when they attacked
the school, and the timing and location of the maximum number of
students in a specific area.
“They were going for the big kill,” the sheriff said. The
handwritten dairy is said to contain German words and phrases,
references to Nazi Germany and racial slurs, despite the fact that
Klebold’s mother, Suzan, grew up in a prominent Jewish family in
Ohio.

to add to speculation that April 20 was chosen for the shooting
because it was the 110
th
anniversary of Hitler’s birth.
6. Virtual reality is for real
Virtual environments have been around for decades, mainly
in expensive flight simulators and military displays. What’s new
about “virtual reality” is that the necessary computing power and
displays are more affordable and new peripherals such as data
gloves have become available, generating still further dimensions
of immersion and interactivity.
In prosaic terms, VR endeavours to create a very natural
interface between humans and computers, where communication
can take the form of moving 3-D imagery, spatial sounds, and even
physical forces - from motion to crude touch. (Smell is also being
examined.)
This has all sorts of entertainment possibilities, like
immersive video games and films, and many practical ones, too.
For instance, the ability to do “soft designs” of cars or space
stations that engineers can literally enter (rather than view from the
window of a computer) might result in better products at lower
cost.
There are many mutations of virtual environments. One
