Over 100,000 feared dead

The army along with the government are understating figures. This estimate came in from the Edhi Foundation (Pakistan's biggest chiarity). There have been smaller Earthquakes, including one in Karachi today (4. some thing).

We're leaving on Sunday for Islamabad. Taking a bunch of antibiotics from here. Other than that, will buy stuff from there. Conditions are really bad...especially in small villages. Aid workers have reached large cities but the smaller towns have been ignored and will probably continue to be ignored. We're trying to take a few trucks worth of stuff to a few such villages.

Once we're up there, ill try and post pictures here. We've raised $6500 so far (thats a butt load when converted to ruppees). Atleast 2 truck worth of supplies. Thanks to everyone who donated!
