Montana Hotel is being evacuated (One of the major & nicest Hotels in town)- Hillary Clinton Secretary of State offering full support to Haitians in this time of need.- Wyclef Jean the Famous Singer was talking over the phone to Haiti when the earthquake hit. Reports reading text saying death of a young rapper part of his foundation, wants confirmation, pleads for help to find families & friends. “One of the darkest nights in history of Haiti”- No Electrical Service, No Phone Service.
