Watched Olympic ski trials and then caught "Sky Captain and the world of Tomorrow" on TV. Crappy story line but absolutly great "retro" look and feel. PLUS 'Captain' flies a Curtis P40 that can also 'fly' underwater, has a morse code key, AND has room for Gwyneth Paltrow in the tandem backseat. What ever happened to really bright red lipstick?

New Year
SMS donations are easy. I hope they get to the targets soon.
Haiti images are heart rending.
David Brooks makes the point that earthquake 7.0 in California killed under 100 people while the level 7.0 in Haiti may have killed as many as 30-100,000. Why?
No building code?
Poverty seems pernicious in Haiti. There have been decades of aid. Dominican Republic must have had a similarly crappy colonial period and then dictators yet they have bounced back some.
How come?
