The devastation in Haiti continues

The devastation in Haiti continues to spread as the poor island nation goes yet another day without food, water, shelter, medicine, or the means to search for and treat wounded survivors of Tuesday evening's massive 7.0 earthquake. Aid organizations estimate as many as 500,000 may have lost their lives in this latest of Haiti's endless string of natural disasters. Everywhere the eye can see there is destruction: buildings collapsed, the wounded walking and wandering, dead strewn in the streets. Clinics are so overrun the wounded lay beneath makeshift tents made from bloody sheets. The presidential palace crumbled leaving the Haitian president just as homeless as the people he governs. The Catholic Archbishop is dead, a victim of the collapse of the Port-au-Prince cathedral.
