It takes a Village

or in this case, the entire world.

I'm making a general plea here on humanitarian grounds for us to do whatever we are able to do, in whatever form you choose, to help the victims of the tsunami this week.

Unfortunately, I have no skills to add to the relief effort, all I've got is money and my voice. To that end, google has a nice summary page of some places where you can make contributions to the relief effort. FWIW, I'm a Medecins sans Frontieres guy, myself.

Now that the initial wave is past, the entire region is going to be a massive disease epidemic, combined with a lack of drinking water, food, shelter, and all sorts of other miseries. The human cost is already staggering in scale and it is going to get worse. So if you can help, please do.

Thank you.

still here, still working
