[Lijahsbubbe]

says that for days after the waves hit, he could hear the spirits of the dead wailing in the night.

Terrible thought, but perhaps people were still alive, afloat in the water.

My post is directed to the article and since I am new here
please forgive me for the way I went about it. I will do better soon.

I live in Min Buri Thailand which is just east of Bangkok.

The main religion here is Buddhism. This being the case I
approve of the monks actions. If it makes that many people
feel better, why not.

After such a shock it can't help but take some of the
terror out of the situation and that is a good thing.
