Tsunamis Bring Out The Crackheads

As much as I'm not a fan of George W. Bush, there are some nutjobs that are blaming him for the death toll. See Exhibit A and Exhibit B. But it's not Bush's fault: If you listen to these other nimrods, it's all the fault of gays and lesbians.

Morons. All of those folks. Anyway, speaking of the Tsunami, here's some good scientific data on the whole thing, a story about how the animals escaped the tsunami, a pile of links from Boing Boing and how the disaster is going to affect cryptozoology. The New York Times has a great package of infographics, photographs, and more. They're still having a hard time getting inland and to some of the most devastated areas where there could be tens of thousands more bodies. And we could've saved a lot of this if we just follow these directions on how we can build a tsunami early warning system in one month. Here's a good list of tsunami resources and good note on how the real news is getting distributed. If you really cared, there are some Starbucks that have been affected by this and they plan on donating all their sales from December 29th to disaster relief.

As it stands right now, the death toll stands at just about 150,000.
