i just read about the major destruction and confusion going on near sri lanka after a major earth quake hit 100 miles off the coast. the quake was the largest in over 40 years and created a series of large tidal waves (some as high as 40 ft) that took more than 1500 lives. they are speculating that the deathtoll will rise to about 3,000 as the day goes on. apparently, the prison was also destroyed leaving over 200 criminals to wander the streets. what worries me the most i think is the damage this will do to the already questionable sanitation in india. i pray that these people receive help from the world so that they can avoid diseases that come with natural disasters.
