I am unabashedly biased in the matter, but I'm gonna go ahead and say that I'm really really proud of my Coast Guard shipmates today. Those guys didn't wait for a better plan, they just got in there and started doing what they could. It should be recognized that those pilots and crews and their support groups have been running solid for about 48hrs now. Probably precious little sleep for any of them.

[snif] You just gotta luv these guys... even if they *are* stinkin' rotorheads. :-)

I'm just browsing through the Katrina threads. ~sigh~

Heartbreaking stuff, but I'm gonna have to stop reading it for now or risk emotional burnout.

My mom just came back from buying a gallon of milk and she said that the gas stations have very long lines.

My car's got 3/4 of the tank full, so I'm not worried yet. Here's hoping the spike in prices is just due to temporary hysteria.
