As the world scrambled to the rescue, survivors fought over packs of noodles in quake-stricken Indonesian streets Wednesday while relief supplies piled up at the airport for lack of cars, gas or passable roads to move them. That's what I was afraid of. Needed: ways to get relief to the victims. Boats, helicopters, Land Rovers, all of which need gas, and drivers/pilots. Drivers/pilots and other relief workers need places to sleep. Logistical nightmare. Massive coordination effort needed.
