I'm sure the ectophiles are all savvy enough to find this stuff out on their own, but just in case the info hasn't percolated down to you yet, here is a good gathering spot for information on the Asian tsunamis and how you can help: http://tsunamihelp.blogspot.com/ (The links sidebar is particularly useful... and the "estimated death toll", updated several times daily, is simply beyond comprehension.) This is going to go down as one of the top three natural disasters in human history, if not *the* worst, and it's time for everyone else on the planet to dig deep and do what we can. Even if all you can do is drop off a box of bandages to your town's relief collection point, it's something. I now return you to your regularly scheduled music conversations ... I promise I will actually post a "best of" list this year!! =============================================== Meredith Tarr New Haven, CT USA mailto:meth@smoe.org http://www.smoe.org/meth =============================================== hear at the HOMe House Concert Series http://hom.smoe.org =============================================== ------------------------------ End of ecto-digest V10 #357 ***************************
