Shock

[ update ]
60,000 and rising.

::
The latest news put the number of deaths at more than 9,000. They are expected to rise as the sea relinquishes more bodies to the shore.
Tamil Nadu alone has recovered more than 1,700 bodies so far.

The human spirit is a tremendous thing - the way we seem to be able to carry on after something like this.
