Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
Ever since the news first broke of the earthquake in Turkey and Syria on February 6, which has claimed over 41,000 lives (and counting), I've been refreshing the news on a daily basis. But it struck me, horrifyingly, that beyond a desire for knowing the details, I keep coming back to one particular thing I look at: The number of deaths. Even when I sat down to write about this, the very first thing I looked up was a list of the deadliest earthquakes of the 21st century - of course measured by the number of deaths.
