Re: [RCSE] "One of our own, underwater in New Orleans"

He obviously lost all of his modeling stuff. He will have things of more import over the next few months. At the appropriate time we can see to it he gets some equipment. I'm sure which ever radio company he uses will be helpful. This is a great group of people and I'll be we can get him going again.   If you are going to coordinate Gordy keep us posted.   I have a good friend in New Orleans and he evacuated to Dallas. His wife is a neonatal ICU nurse and can't leave. Their house fine but they've been told the earliest they can go back is Sept 9. They are evacuating the hospitals to other areas as transportation is available. The generators are running out of fuel now. People are going to die. Lets keep them in our thoughts.   Darwin N.

He's a proud man who's been an excellent provider for his family, so likely not all that interested in 'help', but that's his problem not ours! :-)   [EMAIL PROTECTED] So if someone out there has a TD ship to spare and some time to take him flying, contact him and let him know. Gordy I'm in Atlantic City NJ and you're not.
