  1. Benson is cool. I agree with him often, but that’s not the same as ‘sucking up’ to someone.
    Rob’s usually v.entertaining and sometimes insightful, but I think his comments re Haiti today are pretty bad.

  2. MM – Truth to tell, Dominican Rep. isn’t much better off. I’ve never seen such a huge gap between haves & have-nots – virtually no middle class. I worked there for a couple of weeks & have never been so depressed by an environment. (I’ve never been to India.) I have a lot of Haitian friends & they say that there is a middle class there – not substantial but greater than DR where it’s almost non-existent. In DR you’re either mega-rich (very few) or dirt poor.

  3. Hi All
    Montrose speaks the truth, not to mention Haiti’s population is something like 50% under the age of 30
    on a personal note my sister in law’s aunt perished in the earthquake as she was one of the patients in the Hospital that collapsed.

    I work with Wyclef Jean and his organization Yele.Org is working hard to get relief fast to the victims.

    please if you can donate $5 via Text to 501501 and text “Yele Haiti”
