John,
Karl informed me that all the cac members have been accounted for in
the gulf coast. With the exception of one. He couldnt recall the
name of the member(Karl was on his cell phone and not at home). But
he said he was in his 70's and others have said he wouldnt hang
around and would leave before the storm arrived. Karl will get me
the name maybe tomorrow and I will post it here so if someone may
know him.
I would like to ask everyone to help out with anything you can for
the victims of the gulf coast. Your local and national support is
very important to these folks and to the country. Im sure everyone
has heard of the "trustworth" charities that are accepting funds and
items to go directly to the disaster releive. The Lonestar state has
went above and beyond to help out. And I personally say thank you
Texas!
Take care all,
Morgan
