I locked Tom's thread,for peace mainly but it wasn't exactly the nicest topic to have out there. Although as has been said,Tom's was about it being on the news too much,Patrick you were saying it seemed to be getting too much money.

ANYWAY

Back to the concert!

Not at all, I just ment I didnt get the media attention about it.

I heard its not that big a country, but I dont know why so much is going into helping it.
I have never seen this being done for any other disaster before you know?

let me try and put this into perspective for you:

Ireland has a population of 4 million people.
Haiti is a quarter of the size of Ireland and has a population of 10 million. It was extremely poverty stricken BEFORE these TWO earth quakes. Now it is essentially an over sized squalor. If you can not see the need for the mass support and media attention, then you are beyond the point of salvation.
