Screams in the night in Haiti

At the Cleveland Park Congregational Church today a parishoner who was in Haiti during the earthquake related his experience. He was in a hotel above the city. Hotel guests camped on the tennis courts arranging some food, water and security. As complete darkness fell the sounds of the city below rose - screams that blended together into one voice. After each aftershock, of which there were 15 or 20, the screams intensified. His description blends the magnitude of the total horror with the personal horror each individual scream represented.
