It’s hard…
… to wrap my head around numbers that big.
Hey all. Short and maybe not so sweet tonight. You may or may not have been wondering why I haven’t mentioned anything about the tsunami in southern Asia that has claimed over 100,000 lives at last count. I’ve been wanting to say something, but, it’s like they say, after a certain number, your brain just refuses to accept that much death, it becomes a statistic. I try to think about it and I guess me self-defense mechanisms kick in and I just go numb, rather than try to process a disaster of this magnitude. All I can do is point you to folks who are giving much better coverage of all this than I ever could:
Lastly, if you have anything to give, then, please, give:
Link to WikiNews’ Tsunami Help Directory, where you can find all sorts of way to help and donate.
I’ll try to be back tomorrow with more techie news and maybe a podcast-related announcement. Might even try to do something special for the last day of the year. But for tonight, this is all.
