I'm very glad that you're ok, Gary, and would like to hear about your experiences. We have scouted around looking for a local, reputable charity and located the KY Baptist Convention based in Louisville. They have a 2000 person Disaster Relief squad that is specifically trained to be first responders in disasters, irregardless of the location. They currently have at least 70 persons on the ground in Mississippi and have had for several days, so we sent a donation to them. Please let me know if you encounter them or hear about them down there. Take care and it would be great to hear some updates about the ongoing efforts in your area. Stephanie
