Recent disasters
Strange how world disasters are nothing more than a news item for a few days. Morocco earthquake over 3000 dead. Now Libya floods estimated over 20,000 dead, so sad.

Re: Recent disasters
Watching the news with those terrible scenes, I was surprised when the people were screaming for help from anybody, while the Govt's said they would only accept help from certain countries, in other words ******, no doubt being advised by Saudi Arabia.

Re: Recent disasters
It depends on where and when.
Sadly to many in the west such are not of enough importance to stay on the news for long.
A sad sign of humanity now.
Happy daze John in Oz.
