Default Florida Disaster

I recieved this email yesterday from a member of the Forum. I don't know his username but he lives in Louisiana and has lost everything they own. If you know them I'm sure they could use a few good words.

> Jeremy, thanks for the info,, I need tires,, but I have a bigger issue.

Katrina has destroyed our home to the slab. Currently we have no mail address and our home is gone. Our neighbors are flooded to the roof. We have basically lost all but my wife's car and my C5 we evacuated in. I am buying a camper to live on the property to rebuild but the State and local goverment will not allow us back in. I have many friends who stayed and haven't been heard from since the storm. So Hold me a set,, after I get a roof over my head,, I will have to buy them, mine are slick and after this week with the trash I have driven over they are really unsafe. There is no place that will be open to install tires for at least a month. Hopefully I will know more then. This storm has been really bad for the Local area and the Nation. We are now in a national disaster area. Jim & Bev Corkern
