Disaster in Japan: Country pulls together, military are able to help out people who need it, because no one is rioting, stealing, raping, etc.
Disaster in New Orleans: Well ... Exactly the opposite. |

yah, that is good news. hope they can do a full containment soon.
my pops mentioned that people were crowding the local stores so much that him and mom were barely able to get 2 loafs of bread yesterday morning. all dried goods, instant foods are sold out in his area. not that he's worried. his cat's back... and looks ![]() ![]() he can still buy stuff online outside of tokyo and have it drop shipped overnight. other major cities in the west (osaka, nagoya, kyoto, etc) are operating like normal. |

I was at Costco this afternoon, and they're now set up to collect donations for the tsunami relief, with 100% of donations going towards that cause. I'm sure many other businesses and organizations will be doing the same.
