    Not just 1200 to 2000 people dead in a day, but a whole unique civilization lost. Link for the unknowledgeable[^] What a disasterous way to start the New Year for the planet. Regardz Colin J Davies

    You are the intrepid one, always willing to leap into the fray! A serious character flaw, I might add, but entertaining. Said by Roger Wright about me.

      Where exactly is that, Colin? I just looked at the Keyhole satellite imagery and spotted two small islands north of the Solomans that look to be underwater... could that be them? One is shaped rather like a boomerang, the other is smaller and just north of that. Both show distinct bright spots along the shores - lights, fires, moonlight reflecting off the breakers maybe. What a tragedy, if so... "How many times do I have to flush before you go away?" - Megan Forbes, on Management (12/5/2002)

Also these people have lived how long on those islands? I am pretty sure they have been through storms of this size in their history and have obviously survived.

              Like Paul, I wouldn't expect them to be "all dead" - but can you Aussies please have a look?


              As James Bond in "die another day", Pierce Brosnan features traits handy in the dawning millenium. He fights without hesitation in a bewildering environment, trusts his high-tech-gadgets, and rather falls for beauty than pondering the political absurdities around him.  [sighist]

                I emailed the image, and now that I review it, I'm not at all sure it's real-time. Still, it's interesting to be able to access composite images of the entire planet anytime.:-) Great geography tool!
