Wake up it's 2005!

There's nothing like a rousing scream to get you going in the morning. The scream we all hear at the dawn of 2005 is all about what is happening in Southern Asia and what can be done to help the victims. Well everyone can do something.. if you can read this then you can probably donate some cash (what my wife and I did) as a minimum. It shouldn't take a calamity of this magnitude to initiate the redistribution of wealth on the planet but guess what? It does. For a list of organisations actively working in the area please see www.cbc.ca/news.

There's a flip-side to the dogoodism that's emerging in Southern Asia and it goes something like this; if you are willing to give to the victims of a natural disaster then are you hypocritical if you don't give to victims of genocide (see the Sudan for more...)
