Okay, so what I want to know, that no one is talking about, is; are they evacuating the evacuees from the Astro dome? And if so, where to?

unless you can prove you're bringing aid in to the Miss Gulf Coast (coming from LA), the Miss Hwy patrol is going to turn you away trying to run down I10 That is what I would expect. Thanks for the information.
I am in a safe area, but all Texans leaving need to head north and west.

Freepmail is more efficient for this type of thing.

My husband is currently sitting on the causeway trying to evacuate his 94 year old aunt out of Galveston ~ he says it's pretty much at a stand still where he is now but he is planning to take 59 north.Is the ferry still running?

Yes - most of them sent to Ft. Chaffee, Ark, near Ft. Smith.

A reporter in Galveston just told 540am here in Orlando that the original evacuees from New Orleans DO NO MIND BEING RELOCATED BECAUSE THEY KNOW ARE BEING TAKEN TO SAFETY this time. She also points out that TX evacuees are allowed to take their pets when they evacuate and this is crucial because pets are family members too and some in NO would not leave home without them.

Look at the way these people are being treated! They are using school buses, when their human dignity calls for Greyhound buses! The horror!

Ironically, the first request was sent via FReepmail. It was
either ignored, or not noticed...

Here is a website that will update in about 40 Minutes with all of the CURRENT ship and Storm positins in the Gulf of Mexico!!

I believe this is all Lloyd's covered ships in the area?
MANY Container ships are moving through the gulf right now...

That's what (Steve Harvey?) actually said, and it wasn't during a comedy routine.

OMG. This one will kill people too. Hope everyone gets out of the way. Our poor Country, just what we don't need, another major disaster.

Hey, DG - are they building a new causeway to Galveston?

FYI
From another list I read:
Subject: Re: 6 horizons on 21(20)
In addition to the TRE equipment moving to the Houston area, Amtrak has been asked by FEMA to position two trainsets in the Houston/Galveston area too. Evacuee moves should begin on Thursday should storm track predictions deem it necessary.

Can you believe the insensitivity of Galveston to be putting people on un-air-conditioned buses in the late summer in South Texas? And there's not bathrooms! The horror! Must be a Karl Rove plan.

(In)AccuWeather on Fox pushing their contention that Rita's already a Cat5 based on pressure (IMHO, they're about 2 hours ahead of the curve).
