oh yeah

I can't believe how much more devastating earthquakes are in Third World countries. This earthquake in Iran has a death toll maybe as high as 40,000...and it was around the same magnitude as the one we had here in California just a few days ago, which had a death toll of 2. I mean, 40,000?! How does that happen?! That's a huge tragedy. Apparently in 1990 50,000 people died from an earthquake in Iran. That is simply crazy.
