[QUOTE="air_upser, post: 55591"] There will be time to mourn the lose of life. There will be time to ask why it happened. There will be time to curse those who tried to benefit from this Tragedy. But now is not that time. Rather, it is time to join together as Americans and help those who need it. It is difficult to watch the images on TV. Im sure everyone with a boat on this board wanted to drive down there and help, myself included. Or drive your package car or feeder full with water straight to the Gulf Coast. Unfortunately it is taking some time to organize the overall relief effort. Hopefully, the relief effort will become more organized and tell us what they need. Can you imagine losing your home and living in a Stadium 300 miles away for perhaps months? Some have already offered shelter in their homes, and I think that is a great opportunity. Maybe we can start a list that can be given to FEMA or the Red Cross? For those who dont have the means to help, Im sure those hit by this tragedy will welcome a prayer. Every little bit helps. For those of you that will turn this into an argument about UPS or the Teamsters, shame on you. They will help. They will put aside their differences as everyone on this board should. Theyll be plenty of time to argue about the contract or work practices. Now is not that time. I'll get off my soapbox. If anyone learns of other relief opportunities besides the Red Cross or FEMA, please post it here. [/QUOTE]
