I cannot get my head around that level of destruction.

Ditto. I naively thought I was the only one who felt like that.

The Japanese people are handling this with incredible fortitude and dignity.

Agreed. There was a segment in the news yesterday of a queue of people outside a supermarket.

It was perfectly formed and everyone was patiently waiting - summed up, for me, the way the Japanese have been dealing with this.

I really hope they catch a break soon what with the on going aftershocks and nuclear reactor issues.

Shocking.

SKA Ltd got a good client in Japan who is reasonably far away but still terrible, we made a substantial donation to Red Cross collecting money on behalf of Japanese Red Cross.

Not much more you can do.

Makes you realise that no matter how dire your life can sometimes seem; there's an awful lot worse out there,

But they dont convey the scale of the destruction in the same way..

Good point DaveB, well made.

I think one of the most affecting for me is the photo of the two people looking at the body of their daughter in the driving school car.

They're all so sad. Awful, awful tragedy.

I'm finding this disaster incredibly sad. I know all disasters are sad but this one in particular is really getting to me

My favourites, from a simply 'gosh' perspective...









Many are not suitable for gawping at, I think/hope these are OK.

That's more than can be said for the world's financial markets 'professionals'.

I can see #37 winning awards.

Saw that one the other day. Very powerful.

Grim, grim, grim.

On par with a nuclear war.
