The death toll just jumped from 51 to 91. . .  :eek: :'(

The latest news is reporting the confirmed death toll has been lowered to 24.

Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

The media is now doing everything they can to avoid talking about how many dead. Makes me wonder what happened after 1:30am when a representative from the local authorities made a live statement via telephone confirming another 40 bodies had been found. . .

Even CNN is now focused on survivor numbers as opposed to the death toll.

Obviously it is good news to see a revised number that goes down.......I think the media gets TOO excited and speaks before the actually think, in most cases.

It is weird though, Good Morning America was saying 49 dead with 50 more expected....and NOW.......24 total.

And at 1:30 this morning an official from the area was saying that they had 40 more confirmed dead at that time.

I am sure confusion is feeding all of this, however one wonders if someone has issued a directive asking the media to focus on the positive as opposed to the negative. . .

when I was in Sacramento, Ca when the dam at Lo Malinda broke in the 80's and took out a shopping mall. They started giving a total and then backed up on it and my daughter said they never did give a total of bodies they found, we left to head home a couple of days after it happened.  They were having a special movie for kids that day and they had a count on cars of around 200 when it all began so it makes one wonder if the count was so high they just didn't want to give it out for some reason.
