Hi Dave,

Here's a question for any of your IPers.

Has anyone heard a report from the large US base at Diego Garcia
island in the Indian Ocean? This base, I have been told, is very low
to the water and was in the tsunami's path. The island is an atoll.

The base at Diego Garcia was/is a major staging area for the Afghastan
and Iraq wars and a holding area for many Iraqi and other prisoners.

This island is almostly directly in line between Sumatra and Somalia
on the African coast. It is south and a bit west of the southern tip
of India.
