U.S., World: Today’s a critical day for recovery from the Haiti quake

  • Recovery crews hope to coordinate today and possibly save lives. With the lingering possibility of 100,000 people dead (according to Felix Augustin, the Haitian consul general to the United Nations), aid groups are trying their best to save whoever they can. “Once we can get communications up so we can tell people where to go, what kind of help they can expect, we’ll be able to better manage the crisis,” said U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who cut short a Pacific trip to help deal with the crisis. source
