[AGA-sc] Tsunami
Well, what I had feared has come to be.  There are at least a few of our 
planted tank community toched by the Tsunami.  I was just contacted by Steen 
Jansen. (Erik, you'll remember him as the guy with the REALLY big out-door 
tank with algae problems) He is OK, because even though they live right on 
the shore, they are high enough up a hillside that the water didn't reach 
them.
However Holger Windelov was there yesterday.  His brother died in the 
disaster, and his brother's wife and daughter were badly injured.  He was 
there to arrange his brother's cremation and to bring his sister-in-law and 
niece back to Denmark.  I have asked Steen for news of Ole Pedersen. I've 
been concerned about him because I knew he has been working with sea 
grasses, so I knew he was right on the coast.  My hope is that he was NOT 
working on Christmas, and was far enough from the water to be safe.  So far 
I haven't heard back about him, though.
I was thinking that it might be appropriate for AGA to make a donation 
toward the Tsunami relief effort in memory of Holger's brother.  What do you 
think?
