That visualization worked amazingly well. I have to admit though, the overall event hasn't exactly made me weep with despair. Seeing some pictures, reading specific stories, and things of that nature have elicited pretty strong emotional responses however.
Logically though, I was thinking "well yeah it's bad, but how many people die of starvation in sub-saharan Africa daily, and no one even thinks of it?"
