Re: Haiti Earthquake
Hearing the stories is terrible. That BBC article I posted was just awful. People still stuck under buildings dying when surrounded by people because there isn't enough help.

Re: Haiti Earthquake
Surviving population of millions in a small area yet very few news reports show any of them doing much to help themselves or those trapped... or are the reports wrong?

Re: Haiti Earthquake
They lack a lot of the resources needed. Such as the machinery to lift heavy rubble. A lot of people simply are not in the right state of mind nor health to help and others are too worried about missing or dead family members.

Re: Haiti Earthquake
Today all profits from sales at Popcap (who make excellent games such as Peggle) will go to Haiti. Also any profit from sales from now until the end of February on the Bungie store will go to Haiti:
