Tsunami!

This morning (I desperately wanted to say tomorrow, but American Samoa is just east of the International Date Line), between Samoa (or Western Samoa if you are an American Samoan) and American Samoa there was an earthquake of magnitude between 7.9 and 8.3 (depending on whom you ask)*, creating a** tsunami traveling outward in three basic directions

Sorry to hear of the tsunami. That's horrible. You know, I always feel so helpless whenever a huge natural disaster occurs in another country. I never know what to do to help. I know that most people usually donate money... but for that tsunami, I never really heard much about it. Well, I guess it's because I don't watch the news often, but still.
It always amazes me how one storm can destroy so much property and so many lives at one time. Sigh. I wonder how the people who were affected are doing now....
