*Ø* Haiti 1,650, Australia 0
One notes a radio discussion about the hurricanes in and around the Caribbean: concern that Australia's export of oranges to the USA will be affected one way or the other. Little or no attention paid to the fact that 1,650 people have died in Haiti, with about 800 missing.
Fortunately, people of colour, especially those who live in the tropics, feel the effects of tragedy less than others, and, of course, place less value on human life. It's incredible how they adjust to adverse circumstances.
