I thought the radio just said the count was over 20,000 now. A nasty piece of work this was. My family prayed for this this morning, truly tragic.

Myanmar cyclone toll climbs to nearly 22,500
LATEST: Myanmar's military government raised its death toll from Cyclone Nargis to nearly 22,500 with another 41,000 missing, nearly all of them from a massive storm surge that swept into the Irrawaddy delta.

I heard this morning on the radio that Ontario is testing today their emergency response system consisting of over two hundred broad casting stations. The reason is that if people are warned they can be evacuated before the storm hits.
It seems Myanmar did not even warn his people that this huge storm was coming in so one even attempted to leave the area and is a primary factor in the huge death toll we are seeing. This Government should be held before the United Nations and tried for mass murder.
