Kirsten finishs her article with the words -

"You know what is happening, what are you going to do about it?"

I'll ask Kirsten the same question. Other than composing articles in Seattle what are you planning to do to help those displaced by Katrina ? Speaking as one "redneck" Mudcatter - We have several thousand people from New Orleans that have ended up in Ft Worth Texas. Our food bank has gone into action and the local cities and churches have provided for those that have been sent here. They will have food , clothing, a place to stay and access to services so they can relocate and/or be reconnected with their loved ones.

I'm involved. Are you ? In the time it takes to compose your articles you could be halfway to Ft Worth. Our food bank needs help desperatly. Please contact http://www.tafb.org/ for ways you can help. If you don't mind rubbing elbows with us rednecks.

Let me rephrase that in Kirstens own writing style :

I'm INVOLVED. Are YOU ? In the TIME it takes to COMPOSE your articles YOU could be HALFWAY to Ft Worth. Our FOODBANK needs help DESPERATELY. Please CONTACT http://www.tafb.org/ for WAYS you CAN help. IF you don't MIND rubbing ELBOWS with us REDNECKS.


So Kirsten - see you soon ?
