"So the Coast Guard was gonna drive or act as law enforcement and escort the buses??"

The bus driver unions must have been really strong and refused to do any driving in emergencies like this. The Bus Driver Union Thugs's lawyers apparently had the governor and Da Mayor afraid to even mention them in the plans for evacuation.

"Seems fitting since the Police abandoned the town and the buses were going to become seafaring vessels.....LOL?"

Hard to offer police protection when you are in Vegas, looting Walmart or protecting the cowardly police chief at the convention center.

Here in PA, I believe it's called 'criminally negligent homicide'.

"On a thread yesterday, a freeper was keeping downloads of these PDFs. He said he has seen changes in them since they started getting posted."

This happens everytime we catch the left wing in big lies in critical situations. They have monitors here, and when we start posting critical data links. They will often remove those links or the data, or they will go back and change the data..

This is why we must whenever possible post what is on their links in its entirity not just the links. Sometimes we need to send ourselves emails with the data if it isn't allowed to be posted on Free Republic.

Can't repeat this often enough for the newbees!

I have been buying additional hard Disk Drives, for example Frey's is having periodic sales, for instance, last drive I picked up was a Maxtor 250 Gigabyte with 16 megabyte Cache , rotates at 7200 rpm, it is an IDE drive, very adequate for additional storage, for $99

Truly simple to plug into most midsize cases,,,,

Doesn't the machine already have a USB plug on the back?
Didn't you just get a new machine recently?

My machine is approaching 4 years old.

It like me has old USB plugs. I bought the disk, and it didn't work. I then bought the new USB plug thingy.

I will install it when one of my younger relatives visits.

Every Freeper needs several of these new drives:

Hitachi's Deskstar 7K500 hard drive
. Half a freakin' terabyte.

This Tower case could then handle 6 Terabyte,....

No, that isn't one of the topics I was 'monitoring'. I have a few I do monitor.

We all can't track everything. This is why we keep ping lists and ping the freepers that watch specific events :)

Fellow Freepers:

At the suggestion of writer Michelle Malkin last Friday, I have cobbled together a blogsite called Texas Clearinghouse for Katrina Aid to serve as a clearinghouse for refugee efforts in Texas.

Texas is getting more refugees than any other state -- that's fine, we'll take them all -- but we need help providing them with food, clothing, medicine, and shelter. We need help taking care of their pets, too.

If you are a refugee, you can information that will help you find relief. If you want to donate or volunteer, you can find someone who needs you. Believe me, there are a lot of organizations who need your help.

Right now the site mostly covers Houston, San Antonio, and Dallas but I'm adding more every night. My wife was down at Reunion Arena in Dallas Tuesday handing out care packages and spiritually ministering to the refugees as a representative of her employer. She says that the situation is tragic and that there's a lot of work to be done. There are so many children who don't know where their parents are or even if their parents are still alive.

There are a lot of churches and other organizations in Texas that need help in dealing with the problem and I would appreciate it if you would get the word out.

Many thanks,

Michael McCullough

Stingray blogsite
