| 17. It's awful how they report ongoing tragedies |

like they were episodes of reality TV. Next week--new episode. Katrina, BP, Fukushima, Tuskaloosa...once the news cycle is done, almost impossible to find information or keep public awareness alive.
So sad to hear of all this loss of life and property.
