With the toll already at 2400, and supposedly millions who will be homeless or displaced, Sri Lanka is hit hard by those massive earthquake-induced tsunamis that rocked most of Southwest Asia in over the weekend. (The largest (8.9) earthquake ever recorded world wide? It's big news everywhere; go to whatever news source you like.)

Our own beloved, beautiful, and very bright Lori Reese is over there right now either thinking that her Fulbright Exchange was the best or worst idea she's ever had.

If you pray, pray she's safe. If you don't, then just imagine really really hard. And Lori, call home.
