Frem,

To hell with the fact that it's not about prog.......it's about life and at the end of the day that's what we're ALL about.

Watching the devestation on the BBC has been gutting and scares the bejayzus out of me. However, like you, I'm amazed at the resillience of people. Seeing that woman being pulled from her house after the rescuers smashed their way in was uplifting. Also, to hear about the other rescues that have taken place. Seeing people being airlifted off roofs with water splashing just a few feet away brings home the harrowing situation even more.

It will be a long and difficult job to get NO back on it's feet but I FIRMLY believe that it will happen sooner than people think.

Never underestimate the strength and power of the human spirit. It is the one thing that EVERYONE has in common. It crosses every divide we may set in it's path be it race, colour, creed or religion and will be a major factor in the rebuilding of this AMAZING place that has contributed so much to the world of music especially.

With thoughts of love, hope and future happiness from the UK.
