There ia a big disaster occurring on the Pakistan border right now. Apparently there is no water and people cannot even clean their wounds so medicine isn't helping. The dropping of supplies isn't working because they are being shattered on impact and the people are not getting to the crates that may survive the drop. I was told that the lack of water is the gravest problem right now. The bombing has destroyed the sources of water so the refugees are stranded.

I heard this from a friend who is from Pakistan and still has a brother living there with his family.She talked to him this morning on the telephone. My friend also had three family members working the the WTC including a sister who was confined to a wheelchair. They all survived
and were very lucky but badly shaken as was everyone close to the tragedy.

Another friend of mine missed flight 93 by one week. She lives in New Jersey and 48 friends of her family are missing presumed dead. There are probably thousands of people in the same condition.
