Why does that particular picture have the caption "A tsunami warning system might help woo tourists back." ? Is the warning system going to consist of a monk keeping watch on the horizon for unusual waves?

As 'cold' as it sounds, taking a vacation in the affected areas is probably the best thing any of us could possibly do to speed up recovery of those places.

Not cold at all. The Restaurant where the video of the two guys getting swept away on the railing re-opened and they said they can use the business.

If I was a Rich Elitist I would immediately vacation over there including passing up on attending the circle jerk Balls in DC occuring right now for the "Transfer" of power.

I don't believe there should be any re-inauguration or Balls for a 2nd term, 110% waste.

That goes for both sides.

You hate Bush. We get it, Dave.

This thread has nothing to do with Bush.

Wow.

So what's the status of the relief fundraising? Is the US still upping its funds in response to the growing need?

Well, Clinton's been chosen as a special UN envoy:
