Thanks Gordy,

I went through my closet today and bagged up several bags of shirts and slacks I knew I would never wear again and took them to our local American Red Cross office here in Oklahoma. They are in much need of anything we can spare and would be greatly appreciated. I was in a long line of cars whose drivers were also donating clothing, canned goods and bottled water. I was amazed at the loads of food and clothing already collected by people here in Oklahoma. Some of the trucks that were full were pulling out for the long drive to Louisanna.

Many of our members are from the Gulf states and I wish them safety and good health until they can once again return to the planet. Our thoughts and prayers are with them.

I can't imagine what it would be like to have this happen to my home, family and loved ones...
I hope that all planet members and their families in the path of this devastation will return safely.

My best wishes.

Roy.
 
Just this few words: je suis vraiment triste pour l'Alabama, la Nouvelle Orléan et le Mississipi, les images que l'on peut voir en France sont terrifiantes, je ne sais quoi dire de plus...

Gordy, id est the Polish side "Give to eat to hungry children".
http://www.pajacyk.pl/

There can make, invent banner (here on planetFigure) for hungry children with Orlean.
Click banner and one cent, one dollar help for sacrifices of this terrible tragedy.

I am sorry friends, I do not know English.
