Asian tragedy

It's been horrible to watch the news unfold, the death toll constantly increasing.. 12000.. 20000.. 60000.. Over two hundred finnish tourists are still missing, plus all the other nationalities, and the local people.. And looking at the news and pictures, it just starts to look like not many of the missing ones ever return.. :-(

If you saw, www.apple.com is dedicated to the tragedy today and contains several links if you want to donate to the rescue effort, it's worth a look. Or your local Red Cross website probably has also more information.

I never expected to have this much contrast between this and the merry christmas post..

  1. Gah… I was gonna trackback this, but the box emptied itself on preview, so I’ll do it the old fashioned way: trackback!

  2. Alexandre: yeah, I have been thinking of the same. Lots of seemingly little things like the raise of the average temperatures – and those “small” things play a huge role in the life of the whole planet. Man is very small after all when it comes to the forces of nature. And even though science has gathered a lot of knowledge about many things, it still falls short very often..

  3. and then there comes usa and says: “i’ll piss on kyoto treaty”

    aint that great?

  4. Indeed, well done by Apple, Google and Amazon (which is even more impressive than apple, since that spot on the homepage is their only ‘front’ to the world, if you know what I mean).

    C’mon Ms, Novell, Gnome.org(!).. where are you?
