Yesterday, every site that I logged into, seemed very slow, thought maybe I had picked up some spyware or a virus.
Today, the whole internet is at a crawl, most probably due to the horrible situation in Haiti, and the resultant necessity of using the internet to provide communications, when the normal voice communication systems are down.
If that's the reason, I will certainly not complain, but only hope that more aid may reach that small island. They don't have the fuel to refuel aircraft, so aid cannot be flown in. The ports were damaged, so aid is going to be very slow from shipping. The news reports show a US aircraft carrier in very close, with helicopters, so aid may be flown in, very good news.
