Well, just got done with the conference call, and though nothing is decided for sure and anything is still possible, it's looking more likely than not that I ~won't~ be needed for the disaster relief system, at least not badly enough to bear the expense of sending me down there. They're moving forward full steam with the process, but they've got it simplified down to the point where just about any volunteer ought to be able to do the jobs required once it's running.
