Were you @ the Astrodome after hurricane katrina?

I was just thinking about this, and wondered if any of you happened to be there. I spent about 13 hours a day volunteering there from the day they started accepting poeple, until everyone had somewhere else to go. I'm looking to share stories.

so what? and people are still suffering from it

[fowljesse]

Yes, quite. There was so much that went on there, that it would be good to look back, find out how people did afterward, and confirm some things I heard from the people about how it all went down in N.O. the day the Levees broke. I was chosen to talk to the media by The Red Cross, and other groups about what was happening there during my time, because my self appointed job was to know exactly what each group was doing, and relay information to reduce redundancy, and keep it as efficient as possible. I had to turn down CNN, BBC, and other major media for briefings because I was too busy, so I know some things, and heard some things that the government wouldn't confirm. I am hoping to talk to some others who know.

I think of all the natural disasters in the history of north america, there was none more mis-handled than that of the hurricane in new orleans that fateful day. My heart always has and will continue to go out to the casualties and their families. I could never imagine feeling such hardship.
