True, do any forumites? All sorts of people will die of all sorts of causes over the next 24 hours. A tiny, tiny percentage will have been relatives of forumites. All my sympathy to anyone, if there is anyone here related to the victims of this earthquake, none whatsoever to those revelling in it though.

Should care more about the 70 year old couple found dead in their flat in Northampton.

MP Sally Keeble said she tried to get social workers to visit them. Shame she never went herself.

Still, they'll have a review now, that will solve it all.

Just like the one after Victorai Climbie solved all the child protection problems, until Baby P got murdered in the same London Borough.

9 - 9.9 one every twenty years
10+ never been recorded

BBC News website readers in the Dominican Republic, which borders Haiti on the island of Hispaniola, said they had also felt the quake.

In the immediate aftermath of the quake, a tsunami watch was put out for Haiti, Cuba and the Bahamas, but this was later lifted.

Lovely island to invest in, apart from its population suffering from malaria,
Haiti is the poorest country in the western hemisphere and has suffered a number of recent disasters, including four hurricanes and storms in 2008 that killed hundreds.
