Katrina: Sorrow and Rage

Following Katrina and the ensuing man-made disaster, I go from rage at the authorities to sorrow for the people. Intellectually, I know it happened but emotionally, I still find myself in denial. Perhaps starting this blog will help me deal with the emotions.

I've tried to donate money to the Red Cross, 4 times now, and their servers were too busy (a good sign!) to take my money. Let me go try it again.

....well, that didn't work. I couldn't connect to work via VPN. It's important to make my donation in the correct manner so it qualifies for my employer's generous 2-to-1 match.

Made it. Okay, I feel a litttle better. That's $250 from me, $750 after my employer's match is added in there.
