I know those people in charge are doing the best "they believe" they can and inwardly are just flat freaking out with the responsibility they have been handed by the mudslide. What I think they should have done is immediately seek out the worlds best expert, if there is such a person, and fly them/him/her into the site to take over the management of the situation. I just don't believe the yokels of little Darrington Washington were up to the task of dealing with this world class disaster.
