So did aid get to Pakistan

faster than it did to New Orleans? It would be interesting to see a comparative time-line.

1. "There should not be any blame game."

President Gen. Pervez Musharraf, who called Saturday's earthquake the country's worst on record, said his government was doing its best to respond to the crisis. He had appealed for international help, particularly cargo helicopters to reach remote areas cut off by landslides.

"We are doing whatever is humanly possible," Musharraf said. "There should not be any blame game. We are trying to reach all those areas where people need our help."
