baba (or lady)....
Thank you for your comments.
*sigh of relief*
I grew up in New Orleans and still have grandparents and cousins that live(d) there. Fortunately they had the means to evacuate before the storm hit, unlike so many others.
My mother still has a couple of friends in the area who are unaccounted for.
Let us all support the people of New Orleans, Mississippi, and Alabama, however we can. I am donating matched contributions through my employer to the relief efforts, and hope others are able to do the same.
Puts our ideological differences into perspective, doesn't it...
Maybe we can resume the theoretical chat (on friendlier terms) after some of the chaos dies down.
