Sure. It's so many people lost that it's mind boggling. It's hard to get your mind around the incredible loss of life. You know, I was thinking about the things that people around the world choose to open their hearts to and it seems that natural or unexpected calamity, always takes center stage. For instance, the loss of life in Darfu by the Arab Janjaweed working in concert with the Arab Sudanese gov't is up to 70,000 people, as compared to the 135,000 in the tsunami. In addition, 10,000 people per month are dying in the Darfur concentration camps where the gov't has "stored" the refugees and nobody seems to care about them. It's wierd the things people choose to care about. I wish people were more consistent when it comes to the loss of life. Every life should be just as special. Anyway, I wish all the best for the Swedes and Americans, as well as all the other missing. It's a terrible tragedy.
