Bad times in Myanmar

The death toll for a cyclone in Myanmar is now being put at more than 10,000. During the 10-hour storm, more than 20 inches of rain fell and winds topped 150 mph. It sounds like a real horror story there.

You'll recall that Myanmar is the place where Monks were protesting last year and given a rough time of it by the military government. It's been the subject of a couple of posts on this site here and here.
