Always Know Where Your Towel Is

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is right: Don't Panic. Always know where your towel is. According to the Times Online, a British tourist saved his wife and children from the tsunami by tying them to a tree with beach towels:
A BRITISH tourist described yesterday how he had saved his wife and children from the onslaught of the tsunami by tying them like Christmas decorations to the top of a palm tree.

He told of his desperate ploy — using beach towels to hold his loved ones in place — as the first dedicated emergency flight from the disaster zone arrived at Heathrow.

If you haven't read the book, try it . . . who knows, maybe it could save your life.
