I've just learned that the Supreme Council of the Knights of Columbus is donating $2.5 million to victims of Hurricane Katrina.

This is over and above the donations received by the Knights of Columbus Charities earmarked for hurricane relief.

I saw reported on FoxNews that an evacuee in Baton Rouge, LA witnessed two empty grain barges crashed through the levee during the hurricane. This was a new reinforced concrete levee, and funding was not an issue. Even if it was a Category 5 Levee I doubt it would of held 2 barges being rammed into it by hurricane force winds. Someone needs to get this reported in the media.
