Subscriber catherineq 3 Posted March 17, 2011 Subscriber Share Posted March 17, 2011 It's gone quiet in the Japan thread...really hoping those zootops are finding their way to safety. There are many people stranded in the freezing north I heard, without fuel to travel out....food, water and supplies would be increasingly limited I suspect. Link to post Share on other sites
johnclerkenwell 0 Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 I'm not religious, I won't be praying, but I'll be hoping that the situation eases - not only an earthquake, then a massive tsunami, now radiation leaks and sub zero temperatures, people on their hands and knees searching for loved ones / possessions - wrapped in whatever they can find to keep warm - and this is in the worlds 3rd largest economy.. It's simply awful. Link to post Share on other sites
Subscriber U2LAWoman 148 Posted March 17, 2011 Subscriber Share Posted March 17, 2011 I feel sorry and saddened for the people of Japan, this could have happened anywhere in our small world. So, my thoughts and prayers go out to them. And for those who live in the US. If you have a Wells Fargo Account you can donate to the Red Cross at the ATM. Link to post Share on other sites
