Stop the presses we have news: All Haitians are longing for a more normal life! I am amazed how many stories are in this piece but not done and apparently not seen: Why do the upscale bar and eatery look untouched by the quake? Why are they restored before any thing else? Where is all the raw ingredients for the high cuisine coming from? Who are the majority of women dancing with the white guys? This piece would have been better if the reporter and photographer had highlighted only the two bars – one high on the hill and the other in a tent city. A buck fifty to watch a dvd in the tent city – where are folks getting a buck fifty?
