The first quake was the day after Xmas. Now this comes on the day after Easter. Coincidence?!?!?
yeah, it's a coincidence. at least, it is to the Muslim population of Indonesia ;)
On december tsunami I had a strong sensation that it was not a natural event. In the coastal area of Indonesia there are several oceanic "depths" that are not completely surveyed. It means that if someone put a nuclear bomb in one of this depth...it's very hard to believe in coincidences
first of all - congratulations to your blog about the Tsunami deasaster!!
Do you have an idea, about how we can help now the people in the US, espacially New Orleans etc.? What´s up with Fats Domino, has someone hear anything about him?
