I realize that several of you have nominated me for a Shorty award for my Social Media Haiti efforts. Thank you! …And Please Don’t!
Here’s why I DON’T WANT a Shorty Award:
1. I am not important.
2. I have not done nearly enough and never will be able to do nearly enough, regardless of my efforts.
3. 100% of the focus should be on the people of Haiti right now.
There is no ego in Humanitarian work. The participants must be 100% focused on the task at hand. No attention should be diverted away from the cause. I am but a mere bee in my Hive of Volunteers: I can’t accomplish much alone, but my Hive works better if I participate.
Here’s to Haiti! If there is monetary compensation for the Shorty Award, I hope the winner donates it all to Haiti.

Doesnt this blog confirm that you may deserve the shorty award?
On another note: how short do you have to be to win one? :)
Robert: I miss you! Will be back soon. I've neglected my Optimists, but I know they understand. My heart is in Haiti right now.
We miss you too Mirela! are you getting any of this storm headed up the east coast?
