[LM_NET] Hurricane Katarina - Suggest Monetary Aid

[Madonna Roberts <Libreeder@AOL.COM>]

I would also suggest monetary help.  As a former Army  logistician, I was in 
Florida for  Hurricane Andrew  relief.  The American public was very generous 
and sent tons of  material.  Unfortunately, there was not enough storage for 
all  the donated items (at least in the first few weeks).  The priority was  
setting up tents to house the refugees and soldiers who were working with the  
relief effort.  Some of the donated items ended in huge piles, in the  open, 
and was ruined from rain.  It all had to be buried.  I  remember being appalled 
by the waste.
