Another 7+ earthquake yesterday which was not needed.

A person I know who flies helicopters in Nepal has had a very busy (and not pleasant) few weeks and has been posting

photos of the devastation both from the ground and from the air. A real tragedy.

One thing this disaster has highlighted again is it's all well and good getting the aid into a country

but more emphasis needs to be placed on providing methods of getting it around. Even the NGO's

have admitted they are better at Wholesale than retail of aid.

On top of that, just before the quake hit, he got a severe case of altitude sickness (pulmonary edema) with an infection on top of it

from going up and down in height so often so was RS for a couple of weeks.
