Looks like things are just getting worse and worse in New Orleans. I’ve been reading quite a bit over at Boing Boing. They’re posting emails that they’re receiving from people in and around New Orleans. Seems like there is some seriously scary stuff going on there. The one thing that keeps coming up in all of these emails is that the Red Cross is the only organization there that’s worth a damn. Apparently, they’re the only ones that were actually prepared to handle a situation of this magnitude.

Also, if you live in the surrounding areas and you have an extra room in your house, then you also might be able to help. MoveOn.org is sponsoring this page to help connect households with extra rooms to the thousands of now homeless people pouring out of New Orleans.
