  1. I am highly disappointed in the American media's lack of coverage of the situation in Haiti. There's so much that America ought to be doing to help. I pray that churches will get involved more.

  2. Hey, Ted. My heart has been going out the Haitian people and my family has been praying for them. I hope that you remember me, David Ringley from ORU school of Telecommunications. How can I get in touch with you?
