Food Price Crisis and Haiti

Hey everyone,

Why aren't more people posting on this?
As I'm sure you've seen, the rising prices of food commodities are creating huge problems for people in the poorest countries of the world. Haiti is one of the worst affected and I've been asked to join an Emergency Response team which is leaving for Port au Prince tomorrow. The attached article is one of many published this week on the subject.
