...and I'M insensitive??

CBC News: Disaster alert system useless if public can't be warned: scientist

QUOTE:
"The official said the department knew a tsunami was possible after a 9.0-magnitude underwater earthquake off the Indonesian island of Sumatra. It did not issue a warning for fear of hurting the country's important tourist industry at peak season over what could be a false alarm, the official alleged."
