Hopefully so Jon. It looks like the south eastern part of the Island took
the brunt with the latest death toll now at 2.5 thousand for Sri Lanka, with
an overall count and still rising of 6000. I think it's only natural to be
that bit more concerned about people you sort off...well know I guess. It's
such a tradgedy for the very poor folk that live there. All though the
figures at present seem low compared with previous disasters it was still an
awful event and very sobering to say the least.

Jon, does anyone here have any contact with Joe outside of this group?


Yes, a few, Lawrence. I will check to see when Joe was due back
from Sri Lanka. AFAIK he and his family were on the western side so
should've escaped the worst of the effects.

Jon.
