Vermont sent 12 ambulances to Texas yesterday or the day before. They had been asked for 25 but couldn't spare that many. We're a small state with only a few hospitals - 25 ambulances is probably half of the entire state inventory!

More looting by by the police in NO than *everyone* in South Texas is somehow not surprising. Oh well.

Yeah I guess it is that far. I wasn't thinking. Well, God speed to them. I wouldn't want to be headed over there today. I'm listening to KTRH-AM Houston.

How in the world can all the forecasters be so wrong? Supposedly a catastrophic storm! Millions evacuated! If this thing fizzles, who in their right mind would ever listen to the "hurricane" experts again? I guess better safe than sorry, but what a mess.

For crying out loud...half the country's been praying for this very thing and you're complaining?

Attempted looters. In order to loot, you must successfully abscond with what you looted. They didn't even get out of the building. For looters, they're the lucky ones. The unlucky ones are going to be the idiots that attempt to loot and get shot.

Where'd you see the quote, anyway?

The wind's picking up here now, even though she's been downgraded to CAT III. This is the latest NOAA photo.

I'm located right north of the eye, just by the orange cheeze-doodle fingerprint on my monitor....

"If I were out there, I's sure appreciate it if you discretely drove up to me and my family and asked me to come to your home with you, and saw that your neighbor did the same for the family next to me. Lufkins should open every available space for shelter...churches, every school, etc."

I'll consider doing that after my husband gets home and we can take our kids over to my parents' house.
