As of Wednesday:
The official Death Toll has now surpassed 70,000 & continues to rise as aid workers reach secluded villages & areas devastated by the tsunamis.
For those who can't imagine this many people dead, BC Place stadium in Vancouver can hold just under 60,000 people. The Red Cross predicts that the total will reach over 100,000, not including any future outbreaks of disease or pestilence.
Just hope that people of the world have a long enough memory to continue helping the devastated countries for the long term, since not only were people killed & homes destroyed, but the economies of these areas are toast.
