A 7.9 earthquake in China kills at least 10,000, and the deaths in Myanmar are expected to climb above 100,000. Kind of makes whining about gas prices seem irrelevant.

At bottom: a young Cyclone Nargis survivor eats at a makeshift refugee center outside Yangon May 12, 2008. As many as 100,000 people are feared to have died and the U.N. humanitarian agency said in a new assessment that between 1.2 million and 1.9 million people were struggling to survive in the aftermath of the cyclone.)
