Hi Don,

Well that's a sobering article if I ever read one. But the responses were pitiful. Maybe you can read mine in the next two or three days.

One thing is for sure. The earthquake clock is ticking and every day we are one day closer to one or more large earthquakes and when our turn comes, there won't be enough money. There may not be enough for the hurricane victims for that matter. I saw on CNN today a feeder which said that 6,000 doctors had been displaced by the hurricanes. That's never happened before in US history. Though I'm sorry to hear that, it makes one realize that natural disasters don't care what your profession might be. It's a marvelous equalizer.
