| In just a few days... ...it will be the one year anniversary of a disaster which killed 150,000 people (at least - the government stopped counting); left 55,000 people missing; and was the second worst disaster of its kind in history.
No cheating or googling - can you remember what it was? In all honesty.
If you know say so, but don't give the details away.

| Re: In just a few days... There are a couple of things I thought it could be. Had to Google to see which it was. My memory for the timing of things is awful.

| Re: In just a few days... I too have an inefficient memory. Honest.
