Dunno if it's been posted (I searched and found nothing) but I wanted to take a moment to send our thoughts and prayers of the families of the crash victims from today's helicopter crash off the Newfoundland coast...

For those who don't know, this morning a helicopter carrying 18 crashed into the icy waters off the Avalon peninsula on Newfoundland. The helicopter was headed to the whiterose and hibernia drilling platforms. There was one survivor rescued and one body recovered. the other 16 are missing, and hope is fading. Lets let some positive vibes go to the resuce of any more survivors and to the families of those killed in the tragedy.

Everybody here knows someone on that chopper, or someone who has a loved one on that chopper. Personally, I sail with someone here in the summer that was on it, and is the only known survivor at this point.

This island needs a lot of positive vibes. I work in the news business here, and its a hard day to be a reporter - let alone to imagine what the families are going through. I live on the ocean, last night there was a full moon. I just sat in bed and looked at the ocean, once a luxury to live by, now - a cold dark place.
