Japan, One Week Later

http://cptv.vo.llnwd.net/o2/ypmwebcontent/Josie/Where%20We%20Live%2003-18-2011.mp3

After a full week of pictures and words and statistics, it’s still hard to get a grip on the scope of the tragedy.  Thousands killed, with many thousands more missing.  Hundreds of thousands without water or shelter.  And, the specter of a nuclear meltdown that has taken the world’s attention away from the devastation of the original event.

Today, a week after the earthquake – we’ll look at Japan.  How it’s coping, and how people in Connecticut are helping.

What’s your connection to Japan?  Do you have loved ones there, or a business interest?  Are you doing something to help – to send aid?  Let us know.
