Sumatra Earthquake Part 2

I am in awe at the death toll numbers. Last night checking the web, the sister, Espousa and I at different times announced to the others increasing numbers. 22,000, then 23,000 and finally 24,000. Like Mission Control reading a dial or pressure gauge, but this time with macabre implications. Now this morning, Drudge has 45,000. I can't imagine something like this. On Sunday, I wrote it would be days until the full toll would be known. It may be months.
