Following with horror the stories of at least 20,000 dead in Pakistan/India/Afghanistan after the earthquake there this week, and hearing reports that twenty per cent of the population in the affected areas is under five years of age, I was relieved to hear that the first plane from the US bringing relief supplies contained clean water and wool blankets, and medicines. Formula conspicuously lacking. Pakistan put out a call for water and blankets. Didn't ask for formula either! The US has something to learn here.
