I received this report because my sister is on the expedition with her husband. She was not injured. He was injured in the shoulder, but he will be OK, thank goodness. They have been evacuated to Nairobi. The news has not crossed any wire services that I can see, so it is breaking first on Free Republic.

Good to hear that your relatives are OK.
I think Hemmingway wrote a good short story about Kilimanjaro.

You are new here so everything will have to be confirmed.

What is doing that? Is the material softening as the ice and permafrost melt up there?
