These were people who arrived after the Dome was closed and after the storm arrived. People who may have been at home or work and lost their homes or were driven from wherever they were. They've come to the Dome but it's surrounded like a moat now by five feet of water. Short of walking back the way they came, there's no where to go. The thing is, they have no access to a bathroom (probably foul in the Dome now anyway, but water and food...at least water is key). And they have no umbrellas for shelter from the sun in 90+ degrees. It's been two whole days on the tarmac and they still have no help and one man had a two year old baby with no water. He's carrying the child with a damp cloth over it's eyes but that's it. The workers could just take a vehicle and drive down the ramp with a case of water for them but even though he asked her about them, this witch from the Emergency Services didn't even make the effort to say she'd look into it. They're are utterly incompetent. This incompetence is what is going to get all these people killed. This is going to get bad as people dehydrate and die right there on the concrete. I'm feeling rage inside. I hope Shep embarrassed her enough that she'll do something about looking into it but I'm not holding my breath. At least give them a case of water. How hard can that be. Drop a few umbrellas from a copter going by to give them shade. aaaAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGHHH!

Exit 235 Eastbound on the Freeway. There are hundreds of people with no water for two and a half days. No water and no shelter. Small babies. This is critical! THIS IS LIFE THREATENING! MOVE NOW!

Gives a new perspective to Noah & the Ark. BTW,why is there a moat around a sports arena? Those poor people!
