If I could add something here, Houston astrodome and the reliant center still need volunteers. The refugees are moving out quickly, but as of today, there are still over 8,000 people in the astrodome alone, and many more in the other shelters right there in the complex. We were overrun with volunteers at first, but now people are getting tired. It is sometimes hard work, but very rewarding. Today we had only a trickle of people come in to help. We need volunteers both day and night, so please, anyone in the Houston area, if you have a few hours, go to the astrodome.

Mr. DallasMike, with your permission, I would like to post your link on a local Houston message board. It is frequented by many local people who are looking for ways to help out. I am sure they would appreciate the information you have provided.

Please post my link far and wide. And please e-mail with details of what you need and where you need them so I can get it up on the board. I'm kind of thinking of creating an Urgent category for the kind of situations that you're talking about.
