Everyone must be knowing by now about the tidal wave which hit in the coastal areas of south and south east asia. Hope all Esato members in the region are ok. Heavy casualties are being reported from all over the region. Sad.  This message was posted from a T230

Plus over a thousand dead in Sri Lanka and deaths reported in Thailand and Indonesia. :-( And it's a year to the day since the earthquake killed 30,000 in Iran. :-(

Unofficial reports say the death toll in India may go up to 3000. In Sri Lanka, this is 2200 reports the BBC.
