During the height of the cricket world cup frenzy we were constantly bombarded with talk of how prepared we,as a country would be for any mass casualty situation.We also heard talk of the legacy that such a program would bring with our significantly improved strategies and structures.That is why it is so sad to see how we are bungling a situation where a family is trapped in an apartment building.I understand that the incident occurred sometime around five o'clock this morning and now at 1:54pm nothing of any significance has been achieved.We have really got to do better than this.

Ichirouganaim

I hate to look at the Barbados tourists site that give the history of Barbados.The ones that talk of Columbus discovering these islands and the other foolish tales that the Bob Marley and Burning Spear called 'mis-education'.I agree with them as a matter of fact Burning Spear referred to Christopher Columbus as a 'damn blasted liar'.Thank god for Rastafari.
