Beanie,

Thanks for keeping your fonts small. It adds credibility to your message.

I agree with Matt that the ball was dropped by every level of government when the disaster hit.

The question should be "who hasn't picked it up yet?"

I know that the Governor of Louisiana has been trying to get money approved for housing and reconstruction costs, so she is trying to do something, but last I heard it was voted down.

All I hear about FEMA is that there are thousands of trailers sitting in Hope, AK.

From what I understand too is that there is federal money earmarked for the victims but very little going where it is needed.

I think a lot of it depends on what the insurance companies will cover (or more likely not) before pouring money in.
