kirk, please allow me this...<BR>
<BR>
urgent plea....<BR>
as a nurse i have a special identity to this prayer request. i just spoke with a close friend that was sent to the new orleans area on an air ambulance tuesday of this week. he is now one of the people in charge of rescue/medical efforts. he said the situation is more bleak than any imagination can conjure up. the medical staff are not getting rest and often are forgoing food and water so that the ill and injured can have it. please please immediately pray for all those that are trying to help that they be sustained with strength both physically and mentally for the task at hand. there truly is NO relief in site for them and they need the Hand of God to hold them up. <BR>
<BR>
where one or more are gathered...<BR>
<BR>
thank you and God Bless you.<BR>

Suddenly they are saying that there will probably be 10,000 dead not 1,000. Unbelievable that this could happen here.<BR>
<BR>
Tennessee has stepped up to the bat, we have 10,000 reufgees here already with 18,000 more on the way. Yeah us!!<BR>
(And a Damn Good DEMOCRATIC GOVENOR!)<BR>

Some star on one of the concerts on tv tonight just said; "George Bush does not like Black People!"....BRAVO....and right on national tv. <BR>

Aparajita; Forgive me but I posted your plea where more could see it. It's on dailykos.com now and he gets no more than about half million hits per day. So maybe we can get some good vibes going your medical and rescue friends way..<BR>
