Tsunami Devastation

The tragedy in Sri Lanka, India and southeast Asia from Monday's tsunami is just overwhelming. A death count that started at 10,0000 is now seven times as large, and photos of the destruction left in the massive wave's wake are astounding. Disaster's Toll Soars to More Than 76,000 [washingtonpost.com]. Relief officials say that what is needed most from Americans is money. So please give generously to UNICEF, especially because 1/3 of the dead are children.

Update: This thing is expanding before our eyes. In less than 10 minutes, the death toll is now up to 100,000 people. And victims are starting to scavenge beaches for scraps of food while scores of corpses rot in the tropical sun.
