My wife is talking on the phone to a friend of hers that's a nurse in Florida. She called the Red Cross and volunteered to come to Houston to help out. They turned her down because "of all the disease" saying it was too dangerous. Huh????

I have hear doctors interview they would NOT be going back into places like the dome and convention center because it was NOT safe. Now add to that a breeding toxic sewer, and what it is that our military is wading through it is NOT a good idea to expose any more than absolutely necessary to this death mix.

Maybe she's calling the wrong organization. They are currently begging for medical personnel at the Astrodome and Convention center in Houston.

One theme that seems to be emerging is that the Red Cross is peopled by a bunch of dimwits and incompetents. I stopped donating to them years ago. I'll only donate to faith-based charities.

Tell her to contact
http://www.onestarfoundation.org/ to find a way to help in Texas. The Texas gov was pitching this site last night.
