There is NO human way any quantities of water, meds, food, and human help could have been on the way quicker than 24-48 hours, plus the time needed to land and land transport needed to get to the places that need the help the most. Can't argue with that. I'm not arguing with that. I'm only arguing that better late than never does not apply here. If there has been no local emergency preparation, the afflicted are SOL. Better to face up to it and choose relief activities that are timely enough to do good for those who survive both the tsunami and the unavailability of immediate relief.
