September 3, 200520 yr I hope they pay good overtime... :? Quite honestly I'd rather they weren't "breathing diesel fumes from a generator " I'd rather they just left the place to itself and go out and helped people. This corresponds with what someone posted yesterday about Americans helping everyone else but not their own people. Notoriously Trollish.

There are few people they can help, especially those who are willing to welcome help.
September 3, 200520 yr Thats pretty awesome! Pretty dedicated of them to stick it out like that. I suggest you read the blog too, especially the older ones a few days ago. Friday, September 2nd, 2005 10:02 pm Cluster F. What a bowl of fubar soup we got served for dinner tonight. Yummy. Fuel is still a no-show. No ETA on my resupply schedule tonight. Was waiting on the street freaking out the Federal Cops guarding the Bogs building until the actually came over to talk and found out who we are and what we're doing. Then Homeland Sec comes driving by and yells water and hums a 20 ouncer at our feet without slowing down. I know I'm not looking too hot right now, but come on. I'm standing out there with my flashlight on in the middle of the road, obviously waiting on a convoy. Bunch of stressed out, trigger-ready police and military types driving by suspicious as all hell. It's not safe just standing out on the street even if you look like you belong there. Anyway, I'm gonna sit tight up here until something definite appears on the street.

In the event that the weighted companion cube does speak, the Enrichment Center urges you to disregard its advice.
September 3, 200520 yr This is what dedication to the job is really about http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/9164073/ http://www.livejournal.com/users/interdictor/ They still had to take somethingawful.com down :( However the point that they are still out there when the place is in ruins with high crime and no food and petrol is beyond amazing for anyone in a 1st world country. It also brings up the point that many people living in the 3rd world live in desolate hell holes and yet they still carry on with living. Apart from the initial loss of life from the flood I don't see the place too much different from the poor parts of the 3rd world. We should be counting ourselves lucky that we would never have to face this kind of living.
