Some good news from Thailand, on a personal scale

The young man I mentioned here is alive! His parents heard from him; turns out he hadn't landed in Thailand yet when the tsunami struck. When he did arrive, he stayed in the central part of the country.

So there is some good news amid all the sadness.

Another bit of good news was in this Chicago Tribune story today; imagine the joy of the parents upon finding the little daughter they were sure was lost to the sea. Read the whole story; it's a gripping first-hand account of what it was like.
