I've been on three medical missionary trips to Haiti. I just got off the phone with the Monsignor who I accompanied on two of those trips. Early word is that Port-Au-Prince is a dust bowl, that the non-reinforced brick structures just crumbled and turned to dust. No construction there is earthquake resistant. Monsignor expects death tolls to be in the tens of thousands.

This is very bad, folks. Please drop the jokes and just pray for these poor people.

Prayers up for the people of Haiti, FRiend.

Many had little enough in the realm of worldly goods, and of that they have lost all, if they were fortunate enough to escape with their lives and limbs intact.

Some people here just do not seem to understand that at a visceral level.
