MtG Rules Question: Wound Reflection?

Question

If two or more copies of Wound Reflection are in play, do they count each other in their triggered abilities at end of turn?

In other words, let's say that I use a Lightning Bolt on my opponent, dealing 3 damage to him.  I have two copies of Wound Reflection in play.

Now, do both copies resolve simultaneously at end of turn, i.e., 3 damage is done this turn, so each copy deals 3 additional damage for a total of 3 (LB) + 3 (WR1) +3 (WR2) = 9 for the turn?

OR,

Do the copies read each other, i.e., the triggered abilities go on the stack, then the first one resolves, dealing 3 damage; then, the second one resolves, however, now 6 life has been lost, so the second one deals 6 more life instead!

I would appreciate any clarification on this one.

From the Gatherer webpage on Wound Reflection:

" 	Multiple Wound Reflections are cumulative. They'll both trigger at the same time. One will resolve first. When the second one resolves, it will see the same life loss that the first Wound Reflection saw, as well as the life loss caused by the first Wound Reflection. For example, if an opponent lost 3 life during the turn, the first Wound Reflection will cause that opponent to lose 3 more life, then the second Wound Reflection will cause that opponent to lose 6 life."
