My heart goes out to all of you who have had to go through this type of ordeal. Whew we only get snow and tornado's.

Steve,

With us living in a Hurricane area, and have been lucky enough not to have had one since that bastard Hugo, my heart goes out so much for these people. It is so sad to see how much misery these people are going through. You've been there and done that......I'm very glad you didn't have to go through it again. I wonder how many of these people had flood insurance? I sure hope most. One of the guys in my Platoon left Vietnam right before Camille hit Pas Christian. He eventually wrote us back that his parents survived but their house was moved three blocks backwards. He told us of the apartment complex in Gulfport that disappeared where all the people stayed to have a hurricane party. Only one of the residents survived. It's my understanding that the same thing has happened again in Biloxi or Gulfport. Hope my ol' buddy in Pas Christian made it through this one.

Pack

Post We need to keep Southen Mississippi and Lousianna in our Prayers.

We are keep those folks in our prayers.

It is so sad what happens when mother nature lets go on her fury. The Pacific Coast gets winter storms that often reach 80 - 90 mph winds but nothing like a hurrican.
Here in Ellensburg, we often 3 or 4 times a year get a wind storm with gust of 50 - 60 mph. On occassion we will have gust reach 75 mph but these hurricanes are something else.

Our hearts go out to those people.

Keith

Its heartbreaking to see whats going on. Then you have to scum thats still around there stealing all they can get their hands on.

Lots of prayers have been sent to them and I hope the money flows in for them. I have sent in what I can.

Mel,

Mississippi law enforcement folks have a reputation for interpreting the law in a kind of a "Mississippi" way.

I would NOT want to be caught looting in Mississippi.
