7.0 Earthquake in Haiti
It appears that getting into the airport in Puerto Prince is iffy - they are unsure of the runways. It seems like we could send military helicopters with Aid out of Guantanamo (sorry about my typos) also, the US Aircraft Carrier Carl Vinson is set to leave (or has just left) Norfolk headed for Brazil (my son is law is stationed on it, so we ought to use it as a base for funneling aid, equipment, etc.

I hope that our govt. has already thought of this
