There will be no Ask Harrilal or Classifieds this article.
I will answer 5 from the last article and 5 from this one in the next article to make up for it.
After debating for quite sometime with myself about this article, I decided to hell with it, I'm putting it up.

As you know, I am a real life member of the Caribbean Community. As you must also know by now, since you are here in internet-land, Haiti was devastated by an earthquake on the 12th of January 2010. I won't go into the sob story, because you've probably already heard it. I have already donated a sizable amount of money and gave food/clothes to aid in the relief myself.
Here are some sites that you can check out (there are many others) if you want to consider helping.
I won't risk formatting them and breaking the article. Just copy and paste the links if you decide to give it a look. Or, if you don't trust my links, a simple Google search will do.

Even if you don't donate anything, please keep Haiti and her people in your thoughts and send good vibrations.
Thanks for your time.
If this was a bother to you, I am sorry.
Next article, I will return to normal form.

All our prayers are with them.
it's really sad 🙁
Hopefully the U.S will help them out
My thoughts are with the people of Haiti.
This is very sad I've donated a sum of money too to help them. God bless them 🙁
It is absolutely terrible what has happened. The island is quite devastated.
By the way, can I ask were other countries affected? There's a few islands nearby and also the Dominican Republic is actually on the same island. Were they affected by the earthquake?
I believe a few other islands reported tremors and were on tsunami watch, but from what I can tell, only Haiti bore the brunt of the bad. The Dominican Republic (which, as correctly pointed out, is on the same island) did shake, but no major damage was done.
Okay, I was just wondering for a few days!
Just send cash via a good charity. (Unless you have a hovercraft and a shi!load of antibotics in your garage.)
Not a good day or year, hurricanes too.

I've already donated some money for help too... Terrible, but with our and other people help Haiti will hopefully start a new life... But is needed some time and a lot of help.
I donated some money on campus this morning at university. Peace be with the Haitian people.
I hope the UN will help the survivors because from what i have seen it looks a lot like the movie "28 days later"
People get infected (Haitians have no food or drinkable water) and start killing innocent people (they kill them for food and water)
I hope it doesnt end like the movie, I hope the Haïtians stop attacking the food transports because it will only lead to less help and more army
I understand the Haïtians by doing that, i would probably do the same but there has to come order in the chaos
