Someone had a list they were making of Freepers willing to open their homes up to those who have none. I, myself, signed up. However, I heard today that these offers are being made but that they want them all to stay as close to their area as possible. It was something about them having access to temporary funding. Still, it looks to me like any place could have a FEMA office to deal with this.
I agree. We need to open our homes to these people. Man, there would have to be some cautious screening though. If someone showed up at my door with a plastic bag full of unwrapped DVDs and CDs and a still boxed iPod ...well, I'd wonder.

An alternative might be for a group, a church, or rotary, elks club, etc., to adopt a family and pay their rent for a year, in an apartment in the local area. This would give the family a chance at a new start.
