Tsunami

At last report they suspected the death toll was now approximately 60,000. News like this just floors me.

It amazes me that I'm sitting in my office, chatting with co-workers about reports and such while a natural disaster powerful enough to kill that many people AND actually alter the earth's rotation and possibly have shortened the day by 3 microseconds has occurred.

I've assembled a few news stories on the disaster...

60,000?!?!?
