Expect martial law anytime now if they haven't done so yet.

Some hard stuff to deal with:

Collect and ID bodies that died during the storm and after.

ID bodies that were buried and aren't anymore.

Plant or cremate the dead.

Decontaminate the city (Giant bottle of bleach?) to make it safe enough for citizen volunteers, contractors and the rest..

Help me get there. Willing to trade gfx design or good writing skills for a trip down south ASAP.

Admittedly, I'm broke. I went to the Red Cross today but volunteering from up here is too difficult.

Help me! Some fellow webmasters might be trapped down there.

I'll carpool, bus, train or fly or anything else to get there. The need to help is boiling in my blood.
