Your coverage of the Tsunami was reporting at its finest. I had a hard time watching it as my daughterinlaw is Japanese. So I was relieved to see the miraculous survival stories that followed. They were inspirational and especially the mother and daughter survival. Amazing and deeply moving to see how the human spirit to help one another when one is fighting for their survival.Lois

Examining the earthquake and tsunami in Japan. Included: stories of tragedy and survival; eyewitness videos; helicopter footage.
