Some samples from Alan Spearman’s tweets from Haiti:

We’ve been working on the release of $5 Cover Seattle – it’s going to be great. It’s directed by Lynn Shelton, whose Humpdaywas the talk of Sundance 2009 (and is funny and subtle and a great film to watch in a crowd). The bands are awesome. A lot of talented filmmakers contributed. They’re doing a preview of selected scenes at Sundance 2010 and it has the same release date as Savage County, which is to say – I have no idea when it comes out.

We were just granted non-profit sponsorship for our doc… Which means that my partner and I are about to go beat the bushes for $5K in donations just to transcribe the film. Ouch!
Buy what if we weren’t asking for cash? What if we could ask – even our brokest friends – for a donation of time and boredom.

Every job has its secret, and the secret to his job was this: there was no penalty for destroying what need not be destroyed. Things left undestroyed, however, were full of the potential to end careers – both his and the careers of those above him. It was rarely the obvious that slipped by. Egregious misdeeds were either exposed by whistleblowers or erased in the field. In the few rare instances that photographic evidence or transcriptions of obvious crimes or criminal errors crossed his desk, he destroyed them immediately. Pictures of blood, reports of bodies, catalogs of burnt vehicles, maps of ruined homes, descriptions of weapons of any sort, recordings of crying bystanders, video of wounded soldiers… these could not be removed quickly enough. But would he notice that one man talking to two others is wearing boots issued only to Iranians? Would half of a seemingly senseless phone call connect to a hand-written note in a manner that exposed a conspiracy? He could not be sure, and so he would destroy them both.
