i just missed being in India when it happened missed it by about 24 hours, but there wasn't much damage in the area where we were.
the UK people were ready to mobilize the moment it was announced...
I must say that the people that I encountered on this trip all wondered why the "poor" people in NOLA were so fat and had so much stuff and could still be called "poor". After seeing the total squalor and poverty of India and Philippines... well.. that is poor.
