"What kind of person could really wrap their head around disaster?"
I not sure that anyone can. Today I just realized that I made the "Usual Error". Which is; to expect others to react the same way that I would to a given situation. During the aftermath I was so angry, people seemed so heartless. I didn't under stand how they could react so offhandedly. It was because the tragedy of it didn't touch them, so they had no sense of it.
I'm glad that I'm not snarky like they were, but I sort of get now what allowed them to be that way.
