Just when you were thinking people suck...

The Guardian:
"Members of the British public had donated more than £30m for the victims of the tsunami disaster by last night, the speed and generosity of the response amazing charity bosses."

I feel I should also add that the British government suddenly tripled its input to the international effort to help the victims of this crisis when it became apparent that the public were going to be giving more money than they were... ;)

I'm hearing pretty much the same stories over and over again at the moment. Has anything new developed? Are the people getting any of the food, water, other items that are being sent or is the damage too bad to get the shipments to certain areas?

I heard about half of a report yesterday of helicopters flying in some supplies but were unable to land so they sent the stuff down on ropes?
