People across Asia are flocking to temporary morgues seeking lost loved ones after tsunamis swept across the Indian Ocean from Thailand to Somalia, killing more than 63,000 people.Authorities across the region are running out of places to put the dead -- lining them up in schools and piling them in the street -- as food aid and other supplies for survivors are making their way to affected areas.The tsunamis are "not the biggest in recorded history, but the effects may be the biggest ever because many more people live in exposed areas than ever before," said Jan Egeland, undersecretary-general for humanitarian affairs and emergency relief.
