The Texas Engineering Extension Service in College Station on Monday said the United Nations mission in Haiti has declared that search and rescue teams in the country are sufficient.

I may be way off base here but here goes: Anyone want to bet this team is not made up of the "right kind of people"?

This reminds me of years ago when I was volunteering year round, for three years, to teach tennis to inner city kids in New Haven, CT. Virtually all of the coaches were white. Then, when the tournament here decided to stop funding the program, the local people took over the program. All of the white coaches were told that they weren't needed anymore. They wanted to keep it "local" they said.

Within a year the program completely fell apart. I never went back and never would. To heck with them.

I really don’t know the makeup of the Task Force 1. I know it’s a fairly large group maybe over a 100 or so I think I’ve read. They were at Ellington Field South of Houston awaiting deployment but the order never came. One big thing I think was the ability to get them and their equipment into the zone with limited airport facilities.
