Thoughts on Katrina's devastation
I have to admit, when I originally heard about hurricane Katrina, I really had no idea how devastating it was. It was just this morning that I got a real appreciation for the destruction. I was very happy to see that the company I work for donated $1 Million to the American Red Cross in suppport of the disaster relief efforts, and they are matching all employee's contributions as well. That kind of outreach makes me proud to work for this company.
I'm also happy to see that other countries are considering useful ways to help out the U.S.: Schroeder Says IEA May Release Reserves and B.C. Urban Rescue Team Headed to Louisiana.
If you have the ability to help with relief efforts but don't know where to start, try Katrina Relief Info Available on the Web.
