It was moved in with news, since it was felt a dedicated forum was no longer needed

Thanks Sbk - I tried George's suggestion but came up with nothing - appreciate any further feedback.

Actually, forums like this are now invaluable for researching grass roots inputs on the Asian tsunami - as many research topics are now focusing on the value of long-term lessons learned.

Have the early inputs had a long-term positive impact, etc? I was hoping to find all the original posts in "original" order.

Cheers
Kerrie

ps. sorry about short answer to 'whats-is-name' but don't need feedback like that...

You know a thing called Google?  :rolleyes:

Used Google many times - found many research papers for my needs, thank-you very much. Since you joined in 2007, you may not know - there was once a dedicated Forum called 'Tsunami News'. That's the Asian tsunami of 26 Dec, 2004.

Thanks for your feedback!  :blink:

Oh, deliciously naughty. You are going to start something > I went to a 3rd world dentist in Melbourne. One tooth extracted cost? AU$ 150. No discount or rebate for old age pensioners.In Oz.

Well - one reason I started the post is the 'mafia'-style forced appointments I was encountering after my initial "check-up and clean". It went from (1) check to (2) "maybe" need fillings to (3) jamming x-ray thingies in my mouth with no prior warning and 2 x fillings (4) dental hygiene education class to ... (5) "excuse me, but I came for teeth cleaning, could you please clean my teeth"!?

After the price of an airline ticket to Thailand, I got my teeth cleaned... it was only 2 yrs since I saw my Thai dentist - no need for the 'strait-jacket' treatment received. :0

What happened to the Tsunami News section on Thaivisa Forum? Is it in archives somewhere - and how to access? Am sure there is a valuable store of information there for historical research purposes!?
