This article, sent by Pat, finally triggered me to act on something. I just wanted to take some time out to let you all know that Australia in particular is taking the Bali incident really hard. I mean really hard. See Tim Blair's blog for a look at what it's like near their own "ground zero". Should look familiar.

It's a damned shame that the US has got a maniac running loose next to the second-largest concentration of journalists in the country (if he were doing this in Debuke we probably wouldn't even be hearing about it), because it makes us look like we don't care. Not true, not true at all. It's just that when people start shooting at places where pressmonkies actually live, well, they get distracted.

Just wanted to say that we here over at AMCGLTD are behind you guys all the way, and wish to send you our deepest condolences. Tell us what we can do to help and we'll be there with twice as much. We're funny that way.
