I don't mean to sound harsh or cold, and I respect that people want to follow the unfolding of these events. But not being american, I reacted to the "unprecedented proportions" part here. I guess you mean "in america" or something, because I think what happened on December 26th, 2004 was way worse: "The earthquake generated a tsunami that killed more than 150,000 people, making it one of the deadliest disasters in modern history." < http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2004_Indian_Ocean_earthquake > Now.. Don't get me wrong here, of course this is a local event for you and we all feel more strongly about local events. Thousands of swedes were killed in the tsunami (thankfully, no one I know). Sometimes it feels like we forget too easily though. Sorry again if this offended anyone, I don't often do this, but "unprecedented proportions" my ass... I hope they don't rebuild on the same location, because then you'll have to go through this crap again.
