Direct link and a challenge

is here. As of this moment, it's approaching $1.5 million and increasing by several thousand dollars a minute. That's over 10 times France's donation. Tell me again, who is stingy?

I'm in for $250 and challenging all HZ regulars to donate what they can. There are reports that the death toll may exceed 80,000 in Indonesia alone. We'll never know the exact number, but I fear the toll will be over 100,000 in a day or two.
