Quote: Tsunami death toll tops 116,000
The death toll from Sunday's tsunamis jumped sharply today to over 116,000 after Indonesia reported nearly 80,000 people were killed in that country alone. Emergency workers said that in some parts of Indonesia's Aceh province as many as one in four people are dead.
It's a terrible disaster and I think the diseases are bound to arise with even more fatalities in the weeks ahead. My sons friend's grandfather has a plantation in Sri Lanka, no word from him yet.

The Tsunamis obviously had different 'faces' in the struck regions, depending on the angle and the type of beach/shore.
In Thailand the Tsunamis came rather like 'small' waves, but with incredible speed and impact incl. unbelievable high rising water with some delay (like in a bathtub) creating extreme currents nearly nobody was able to escape.
Have you seen this small video?
There you get an idea about how powerful and 'biblical' the flooding was in Indonesia.

In the Indonesian city Lhok Nga, 20 kilometers north of Banda Aceh, today more than 5,000 dead bodies were discovered.
In the local river, uncountable numbers of additional dead bodies are floating.
Australia and New-Zealand stopped public life for one minute of silence.
