Rally the people. Find the food aid and supplies. Spread the word the SPDC should be punished. This is the time to strike the SPDC with everything that can be shot, fired, launched, thrown or swung.

Of course we can say "this tragedy is one step closer to a mass of people seeing utter incompetence in order to demand change", but speculation can just be a foundation for dissapointment as you have mentioned. I don't want to be dissapointed at what is going on in Myanmar anymore. How can anyone take what is said at the hairdressers (or wherever) seriously? - it just boils the emotions until it overflows in a highly irrational handbag bout. Maybe there will be a civil war -- well rip the bandaid off quickly then and get it over with. I don't know what to do with the fire that is fueled by this sort speculation. This is a good peice nonetheless, so thanks for probing my thoughts. P/S Do you think crocodile leather would sting more?
