Things that Pop into my Head The rescue operation in Haiti is desperate, around the world, help is on its way, but until then there is not much people can do to help themselves. Someone asks \"where are the rescue crews?\". There were no rescue crews before, there are none now to help rescue survivors from the Haiti earthquake. Until they arrive from other countries there is no help. In some of these Haiti pictures you can see family members and neighbors digging the rubble looking for survivors. That is the only help available, and with no heavy equipment it is a daunting task. A 7.2 quake in Haiti is like a 10.0 in the US. It is hard to imagine how they will rebuild, but they will. Most of the help will not arrive where is needed. It hasn't before and why should we think this time it will be different. There are some Ham radio operators in Haiti. Today the Salvation Army emergency network started up on 14.265 Mhz SSB. Messages regarding health and welfare of the citizens can be transmitted to the US, and forwarded by phone and internet by US Hams as needed. The big question is how many Hams are in Haiti, and how many of those can get power. Donations for the Haiti earthquake are desperately needed. Spread the Word
