Dan Morain: “Last month, the New York Times reported significant progress in Somalia. The number of people “facing imminent starvation” fell from 750,000 to about 250,000. Yes, that’s an advance since August when news accounts and photos like this one detailed the magnitude of the crisis.  But imagine 250,000 people facing starvation…

But we who have stocked pantries and full refrigerators and yet feel that we don’t have enough ought to think of what we might do for people in a place halfway around the world, or maybe for the person sleeping under the overpass.”
