Thanks Nick,

This disaster really puts things in perspective. Before the earthquake I was loosing sleep thinking about fiberglass. It dosent seem as important now.

I would add World Vision to your list

I am friends with a number of people who work for World Vision and get the money to where it needs to go without taking a big percentage for themselves. Unfortunatly that does happen.

: Thanks to everyone for keeping this bulletin board such an interesting place.
: It constantly amazes me see what people are up to.

: While we are here dreaming of getting our boats out in the surf, take a
: little time to think about the people for who surf no longer sounds like
: fun. As of today, the tsunami death toll is up to 120,000. To give an idea
: on the magnitude of this number, that is 7 dead for every message we have
: posted here in the past year. A little bit of help from each of us can
: provide a lot of assistance.

: If anyone else has recommendations for organizations to help the tsunami
: victims, please let us know.
