G'morning Mike,

 MR> the problem really isn't the money right now, it is getting the help
 MR> there in the 1st place and it has been over 12 days now that people
 MR> have been suffering. Where is the help? It certainly isn't there
 MR> because all the media have been doing is telling us how great the help
 MR> teams are and the vast resources at hand. IOW just another PR spin.
 MR> Bunch of SOB's!!!

Yeah - our media this morning has various military vessels off 
assorted devastated coastlines,  full of men and equipment - now 
held up by twits on shore whose politics or religion make the 
offered help unpalatable to bureaucrats...

Pther stories and pictures show that the actual victims simply 
don't care where the help comes from at all...

 MR> I'm just happy about one thing: today the President of Thailand fired
 MR> the chief meteorologist for failing to issue a warning. Damn right!

And amen !

:-))
