I don't know, why people getting that mad here..,
40.000 liters are seriously not that much. Of course, its not good, but i believe, there are getting more drain water, chemicals & other very bad fluids into the sea by hotels & factory's.
Just the media will blow this story up and will hit the tourism in that region. I have a 80.000 liter swimmingpool and thats not a to big amount on water.
I'd suggest, don't fight here for nothing & be polite...


So if somebody dumped say 1/2 a liter of crude oil into your pool, would you be ok swimming in it?

The site where you can exchange voice recordings is rhinospike.com.  While I've had good results with a few languages, the only Thai recordings I have gotten so far were pretty awful.  Until that site has more people, I would just get someone to record it for you. Then the biggest challenge is getting a Thai person to say them naturally.  

David is absolutely right about learning sentences as opposed to words.  Don't waste time and energy.  Stand-alone words are much harder to remember out of context and are of little use while you are still thinking in your native language.
