Many evacuees are doing their share as well, finding jobs and volunteering themselves.

Congrats to Arkansas, and it's also good to read about this positive attitude among the evacuees. It's probably more common than we realize, but the press likes to obsess on the passive-aggressive whiner contingent rather than on the people who are pulling themselves together and doing something.

Most of what I have seen is grief mixed with gratitude. I really haven't seen any whining or blaming here. Of course, I'm up in the Ozarks. It's considerably more conservative here and a lot of the folks here evacuated prior to the storm and have nothing to go back to. Quite a few more came after, too, though.
