over 100,000 dead in Haiti

It is with tears in my eyes that I write this. Sadly, the news is in. There are over 100,000 dead in Haiti and many are stilled trapped in ruins. Well, many of you do not know this but I did visit this island years ago. It has a very wonderful history. Haiti actually helped the US gain its independence back in the 1700's. The earthquake that hit Haiti is one of the very worst ever. Haiti is the poorest nation in the entire Western hemisphere and as such was very vulnerable to a quake this massive.
