tsunami

I feel like I should say something about the Tsunami Disaster. But I really don't have anything insightful or meaningful to say. Every new bit of information I hear continues to shock me. It has put the local power outage problem into perspective.

In lieu of any actual observations on my part, here's a list of organizations that are providing aid to the several countries affected by the disaster along with contact information if you're interested in helping them out.

American Friends Service Committee (AFSC Crisis Fund)
