The death toll in Asia is now approaching 120,000, and they are still finding bodies. Chew on this for a minute: The largest death toll in the U.S. from a natural disaster occurred in 1900 in Galveston, Texas, when a hurricane killed an estimated 12,000 people. Think about that, and now imagine ten times that number. It's impossible to comprehend, isn't it?
If you haven't already made a donation to the relief effort, please do so. If you've already given and can spare a little more, then do that. As I mentioned before, registered Amazon shoppers can make a donation to the Red Cross with just a single click.
I was impressed when I went to the Apple site and saw that the entire front page was devoted to an expression of sympathy to the victims and their families, plus a list of links to charitable organizations.
