Tsunami Disaster - Can we make a difference?

[andrew_nixon]

Andrew I received this pics on email yesterday and hence put it here...if I had known he had been reunited I wouldn't have "wasted" the bw...but I think its better to use the b/w rather than save it and not do what we as internet users can...what say?

To be fair I found out he'd been reunited in less than a minute.

If you get anything like this, check out www.snopes.com and go to the Whats New? section. They're usually quicky to pick up on these sort of e-mails.

kuwait 10 million dollar(oil rich country but donated small amount of money)

saudi arabia 10 ( a rich country full of rich oiling but donated less money)

Its not thier fault they have donated a small amount. Have u been to those places??? They are so beautiful and very well maintained and it costs a lot to keep these places beautiful. Even madagascar is nearly 5 times as large as kuwait!!!! And the reason they are called rich is because of they way they are maintained, and oil prices have gone up thanks to Bloody George bush so don't u try playing down these places. Besides, do u know how much 10 mill is in Dirhams, Dinar, and S.A.currency!!!!!!

Howard is bloody retarded, we can't afford that

I would like to believe that, after the way he treated Murali, but hey.....u guys voted for him not me joking!

Well that's debateable as the Americans don't actually have a democracy...

 

[brad352]

OK, republic then- either way they voted for him

 

[barmyarmy]

Republics can be democracies. The US just isn't.
Anyway we're getting a bit OT.

The power of the earthquakes are just incredible. I mean if that were to happen anywhere near the surface it would be effect people alot more than the Nuclear bombs used by the US on Japan. One of the highlights of living in England is not being near a fault line.

Sorry if this is irrelevant.

You'd be surprised just how many fault lines we have in England.

I myself have experienced an earthquake of scale 3.5, and we sometimes get earthquakes up around 5 on the richter scale.
