# I'll have to take your word for it.
I am 100% unable to give a monkeys about such things as world disasters. It's not that I'm just a Bernard Manning type un-PC bastard, I just have some chemical imabalance that makes me just shrug at when everyone else is horrified.. Although I can laugh when small children fall on their faces.
