After such a tragedy, the only words out of Pat Roberson's mouth is to offend the Haitian people. WOW, unbelievable.

Sounds like they need some heavy equipment planed in there by big movers soon.


Water, food, medical aid, rescuers, equipment, tents.

Someone I work with asked me for info on the last bad earthquake and in my search I found this:

That article was written in 2008..sigh

Incredible find, angelwing. His prediction was practically right on the money.

Then every country that has suffered a disaster has a "pact"? I can't believe there are people that think that way.

[Aslkahuna]

Pat Robertson is a total eekhole and his "God" is no God at all. If that offends anyone here TS.

El Salvador government will send a rescue team to Haiti, the members are: 8 firemen, 4 members of the salvadoran Red Cross and one search and rescue dog. Initially they will be in Haiti 7 days but they could be there more time if necessary.

Earthquake relief for Haiti

With the damage to roads and bridges and the airport control tower, to say nothing of the loss of life of so many UN and UNICEF staff, contact with Haiti is almost non-existant at the moment with no telephones and no power. I am sure the aid agencies will all be seeking extra funds. I have attached a list of possible recipients should anyone wish to help - my personal favourite is the Red Cross. A Haitian doctor who works here in the Dominican Republic will be leaving for Port-au-Prince shortly with clothes and medicines and we hope he can get through.

Haiti's PM says 100,000 dead. Chief of the UN mission in Haiti and the Catholic archbishop of Port-au-Prince amongst those dead. Wonder about the western Dominican Republic. Fairly mountainous in that area so there might be some damage there that's not coming out.

I agree with you, western RD may have suffered some damage, I hope it doesn't but it's a possibility being so close to the epicenter.

We do have someone in chat from Santo Domingo. .. he was in chat last night. He said he barely felt it.

I heard reports that there a lot of reporters and aid agencies going over the border from the Dominican Republic because they could not get in to the airport. So roads are not blocked. . .

Might not be the best time to discuss that... but I have been told the same thing and not by Pat Robertson. I was informed of this more than 10 years ago

That said... ANY PACT WAS MADE 200 YEARS AGO! From what I have heard... the people who went through the quake most certainly WERE NOT ACTING LIKE THEY HAD THAT TYPE OF PACT... thus, it is IRRELEVANT to the situation

I ALSO WANT TO BE CRYSTAL CLEAR... NOW IS THE TIME TO COME TOGETHER TO HELP THOSE IN THIS DESPERATE TIME OF NEED. LET WHAT MAY HAVE HAPPENED 200 YEARS AGO REMAIN 200 YEARS AGO!

not the quake expert at all... but could the mountains surrounding the capital have contained the shaking to the immediate capital region; thus, sparing the DR?

Thanks Gustywind for posting these. My heart goes out to all those in Haiti. I did the above that I highligthed in red. I am not good at texting but I finally figured out how to do it!
I received a response and they asked for a reply of "yes" if I wish to donate so I replied yes. It was easier than I thought and I received a confirmation that they received my donation.
