There's also a certain amount of relativity in play here, it's likely as close to being a tsunami as Biloxi (et al) is going to get. Same way a rec-league football coach might say of a city-wide championship game "This is our Super Bowl".

Why is it that Americans so strongly insist that our suffering is as bad as everyone else's suffering?

Dunno, but I do have a question or three of my own.
How on earth did you happen to stumble across our humble little forum for the first time ever & of all the threads pick this one to post in for your debut?
Or are you a long-time lurker so moved by all of this that you decided today was the day that you just
had to post something? Or is it possible that you're a regular who wanted to troll this thread in an attempt to sidetrack it into another round of political based argument but lacked the balls to do it under your own name? Inquiring minds want to know.
