Not to be mean, or argumentative, but who cares? From what I hear, a lot of people lost people in Nepal today. The attitude is not directed at you, but the press that elevates this one person above the rest.

I’ve read in other sources that the death toll on the mountain will be much, much higher than 18. Dozens, maybe over a hundred. I hope the media doesn’t focus on that to the exclusion of the much larger plight of the local Nepalis.

From Twitter, it sounds as if the incredibly dangerous Lukla Airport is open, and that it be used as a Helicopter base to get to Base Camp 1.

We should know more by tomorrow about how bad it really is up there.

Had no idea that the fashion trend of wearing pajamas while shopping at Walmart had spread to mountain climbers on Everest.
