well I have been talking with a few people about going down there with our company to help unloar supply barges and with the rebuilding efforts and got this email which made me start to rethink the whole thing. warning there is a littler colorful language in this but not to horribly bad.
I still find it odd how much is being done for Hati and how little was done for New Orleans that place still looks like Katrina just happened. they repaired all the tourist places but the residential areas are still in shambles.

I would question the authenticity of the "To All" letter as it looks decidedly spammy and one-sided...just saying.

I agree...
Also, it's important to mention that the same criminal element that was present BEFORE the earthquake is still there...making those who would graciously appreciate help look bad. Haiti is the poorest nation in the western hemisphere, and what little they had was just COMPLETELY destroyed. The government is completely corrupt, making people who are already living in poverty and squalor even more poor. I can't even begin to imagine living in the conditions that they endure every day. I do believe that we need to take care of our own too, but man...Haiti is REALLY bad off

Yeah, it's really sad what happened there... I gave a little $, and hopefully that went towards something. Wasn't much, but anything helps...
