I've got a partner account with him, and I've always heard good words about him. I hoped posting the news around might get him some help.

Used to be a pretty big site. I guess I figured he was making money. How does he have internet and an ATM ?

I can't speak with personal knowledge. I can re-post what was on MP, posted by a DaveG.

I don't normally post here, or anywhere for that matter. I've been doing some work for Humbolt from Library of Thumbs for the last 3-4 years and he's a personal frind of mine and a good dude. I just talked to him tonight for the first time since the hurricane hit after he scrounged up a generator and siphoned some gas out of an old car to power the generator to power up his computer and sattelite internet service and managed to get online for a few minutes and wanted me to come post something like this for him.

Humbolt lives in Pineland, Texas near the Sabine Pass and is north inland of Port Arthur I believe it's called, about 30 miles north of Jasper I believe, see this article on conditions in Jasper. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dy...av=rss_business

He was hit directly by this last hurricane Rita at full force. His home suffered severe damage from a tornado and they have no electricty, phone, water, fuel, or infrastructure of any kind in the area and they're saying it could be several weeks before it is restored. They are practically living in the stone age. I told him he could come up here and stay for awhile, but he has alot of animals as well as everything he owns which would all be stolen if he left it, so leaving is not an option.

He says him and his family are currently living outside in tents because it's so hot inside the house and a good portion of his roof is gone, they have very little food or water, and have barely received any help from the government (6 bottles of water & a bag of ice). He has a generator and he's trying to find a source of food, water, and fuel to run his generator so he can update his website, and maybe run a refrigerator and a couple fans in his house in the future and if he doesn't find a source of water soon they're going to be drinking the water out of his swimming pool. He says they're already using it to flush the toilets and to give the animals.

He wanted me to ask any of you that could help him out to please donate some money to his paypal account, so he can be able to afford the overpriced fuel (when it becomes availible) to run his generator, buy food and water, and to fix his roof and that he would pay everyone back when it became possible for him to do so.

His paypal account is
[email protected]

Please write DONATION in the subject line if you help a good bro out.

Thanks a bunch,
Dave

I think Shemp has spoken with him, but I am not 100% positive on that.

Way way back in the day. I think I saw a Humbolt post here or somewhere in the past year though, I'm sure of it.

Definitely one of the quieter long-timers.
