'we were taking in over two million dollars a day'
Dave Moore, Oxfam America

I quickly checked my email and was relieved to see that people were already working on the response. Out of mere curiosity, I checked the donation figures and was surprised to see that people had already given $25,000 to tsunami relief. �Hmm�That�s a bit higher than I expected,� I thought to myself. Then I turned on the TV."
