Bits of a Swedish OotP book washed up on Thai beach
The Swedish Rowling Fan Club reports that a Swedish newspaper, Aftonbladet today writes that they have found pages from the Swedish version of OotP (Harry Potter och Fenixorden) in the ruins after the tsunami struck a hotel in Khao Lak in Thailand.
The article reads:
Quote:
"En bit från en sandig, tom ryggsäck ligger de ihopskrynklade
sidorna 895, 896, 897 och 898 i en Harry Potter-bok på svenska.
Harry, Ron, Hermione och Sirius Black är i full kamp mot Lord
Voldemort."
It translates as:
Quote:
"In a distance af a sandy rucksack lies the torn out pages 895, 896, 897 and 898 from a swedish Harry Potter book.
Harry, Ron, Hermione and Sirius Black are in a fight with Voldemort."

Alright these people had to go here and say that it is disrespectful that such a *trivial* issue should be posted in newspapers. Well I think that it is so sad that all these people have died and everything, but it is very difficult to truly appreciate this when all you see is the big picture; all you hear are numbers. This article helps people to envision all the small things that happened; all of the individuals that were involved, rather than just shooting more meaningless numbers at us. After a while, like it or not, you almost become desensitized to it if you just keep hearing the same thing over and over. Get what I'm saying? Well, that's just my two ¢ent$ on the matter. Happiness and good fortune to all!

I'm so sorry about how you are feeling right now.... sometimes i feel the same way too! everyone has their own opinion and perspective about this tragic event. And if anyone disagrees with anyone else, keep it to yourself. We don't have to be arguing like some are in a thread like this.
