I don't even watch this anymore. I can't even believe the news still broadcasts those home made video's, in which they show people fighting for their lives. Ok, once or twice. But they're showing the same stuff over and over again for almost a week now. *feels sick* everytime I see that... It's horrible enough that it happened.  |

I agree with Nat here Is seen to much if this stuff it depresses me really bad and I'm glad no one I knew was out there I am going to be donating some money that I get from work to help them. But I seen to much of this stuff now for my own good...things are only going to get worse in the future this is just a begining...  |

My mum's friend was worried. She must've thought we had gone on holiday to Kenya or Tanzania or something.

Belgium has sended an identification team. I wouldn't wanna be 1 of them. All those body's, are like ...
So they sended a few dentists, because probably that's the only thing they can identify, the teeth.

They usually use dental records to identify bodies that have been badly burnt  , but I suppose that it might be necessary here too... |

Isn't it ironic that the media reports the death rates of this Tsunami just like Jon Stewart satirizes in America: The Book: "10,000 people dying of a natural disaster = 1 American killed in Iraq" is how much of the mainstream media treats this. It shouldn't be so. Americans lives aren't worth any more than those of people in third-world nations. A friend sent me this link of before/after pictures. homepage.mac.com/demark/tsunami |

Has there been TV-show where you live?
As you know, Belgium is 2 parted.
Flemmish - French.
Both parts had a TV show yesterday to raise money.
Flemmish: +/- 38.005.000 euro's
French: +/- 34.000.000 euro's
If that ain't enough, then I don't know anymore. Togheter with the money that the other country's gave.

Yeah, our school is raising money for an orphanage in Sri Lanka by making these doll pins that represent all the contries that were hit by the tsunami. We've made a lot of money and we have gotten together with a couple more towns and it turns out Sarah Jessica Parker loved them and wears one!
