Gulf Coast Relief Effort

I found out that all of my relatives in Central Mississippi are safe. Some suffered no damage to their houses, some severe, but as far as we know, no one's home was completely destroyed. They all have their electricity back on and are in reasonably good health.

My cousin in New Orleans did make it out safely. He's staying with his brother in Memphis.

Cindy and I just made our first donation to help the hurricane victims. Again, I encourage everyone to give anything you can. Any amount would be appreciated. We plan to give more in the next few days.

Here's a link listing several organizations that are accepting donations:
