The distributed team began to assimilate the reality of the earthquake, but by the 14th most of the team had resolved to continue on, recognizing that our help may be directed away from our anticipated tasks. Mike continues to be the focal point and coordinator. By 1030 on the 13th Mike made the following observation:
"I’ve been in touch with some people in Cap Haitian and they are telling me business is going on as usual. Banks aren’t open because of network issues, but our Hotel and other stores are open. Right now, things seem calm. I’m not sure about the airport yet or the flights from FLL to Haiti. We are still trying to close the loop there.
I want to also let people know that any decision we make will be based on safety first. I’m not going to make any decisions based on financial or other concerns. As of now, all options are still available to us and we aren’t going to make any decision rashly. Once I get a hold of the US Embassy Warden (the person whose job it is to keep Americans safe) and the airline, I’ll let you know. The fact that people are working in CAP is a good sign."
