Search crews still finding survivors of Haiti quake

Five days after the 7.0 scaled earthquake hit Haiti, people are still being found in buildings alive. For example, three people were just pulled out of a collapsed supermarket. They had been living off the stores supplies. When other rescuers learn of people being found alive still, it gives them a sense of urgency that might just be enough to save someones life. The casualties are estimated at 100,000 in the capital alone, and there must be more survivors in there too.

The rescuers have done an excellent job. They are finding people all over. They just need to keep doing what they are doing. Looking for signs of life and then investigating it. The bodies will not stop showing up. All we can do is hope they are alive when the rescue workers get to them.
