Wendi,
I can't authorize the wanton shooting of looters; crime to stop crime is still crime. However, I have little sympathy for the people SHOOTING THEIR GUNS at helicoptors trying to evacuate people from the Superdome. And if something were to, say... happen, when I was looking down tying my shoes, well then I wouldn't know, would I?

Gramma, there are a lot of places you can make donations. I would check with your local red cross, or go to www.KHOU.com, they should have info on what you could do to help.

For anyone that might want to donate clothes, I might suggest cool weather type stuff. I know Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama are on the gulf coast, but it still gets chilly, and most people aren't going to think about what these people need in 2-3 months.

I already have given to the Red Cross, and will be giving to the United Methodist Committee on Relief Sunday morning. I just wish I could do something personal that would touch a life...
