I know its a tiny percentile, but to know that .00X% (I am way too tired to do the math) of the worlds population died at once is too much to fathom.

Amazing. Simply amazing. Tragic.
Apparently it already reached over 100,000. Sumatra found at least 28,000 more dead.

Trying to put this all into perspective is tough. I mean 114,000 people is an entire population of some small state or country even. I can't even fathom what is going to happen in the next couple weeks.
