Also, the Red Cross provides swimming lessons here in North America, perhaps they should offer these in the affected areas. All I know is the best thing we can do is donate blankets, used clothes, food and water. They don't want money cause it often gets lost in the 'system'.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8769026.post-1104468887483122462004-12-30T23:54:00.000-05:002004-12-30T23:54:00.000-05:00Why were they so close to the beach?
Well, the to...Why were they so close to the beach?<br /><br />Well, the tourists were there because it was warm and that's what there were there to enjoy.<br /><br />The locals were there because that's where they live, and there aren't any mountains next to the beaches in any of those countries.<br /><br />Also, the total lack of warning might have had something to do with it. Nobody called anybody to say "Yo dudes, 500 km/h tidal wave coming your way - RUN!".<br /><br />Bear witness to the result.Rimmyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05343322476608154520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8769026.post-1104430315552579012004-12-30T13:11:00.000-05:002004-12-30T13:11:00.000-05:00Why were the people so close to the beach?

Apparently while the tourists there are fleeing, trying to get home to their loved ones when their passports have all floated away, other tourists are still arriving because they've paid for their vacation and they want to see the carnage...that really upsets me. <br />And they're saying it could be weeks before they clear the roads and get to the smaller villages, which means that many more deaths will occur, and it seems so senseless.<br /><br />Jason was talking to a cheery woman in India yesterday, she was inquiring about his "Christian winter festival" (Christmas), and he asked her how things were on her end...the news about the tsunami was a complete surprise to her, she hadn't heard of it. I don't know if this was just one woman who was ignorant of the news, or if there are pockets of places without communication right now. It was very strange. It worries me to think that if we can't get news to the people, then how will we get food and clean water to the people who need it most?Jayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13158409505328990008noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8769026.post-1104279692963101872004-12-28T19:21:00.000-05:002004-12-28T19:21:00.000-05:00And millions of us here in Asia join you in your m...And millions of us here in Asia join you in your mourning.
