Once the storm hits, how do you get huge amounts of supplies and men in?

Aircraft?

We were able to drop peanut butter cookies and old pop tarts on Afghanistan.

How about a C-130 filled with water bottles brought in low over the water. Kick them out the back. From Dallas airport about a few hours away.

Nahhhh. Too simple huh?

Lets wait a few days and see how many make it. Better yet, lets send a slow boat from china and tell everyone "They are on the way. It takes time. It just takes time!"

Have you watched the people and what they say?

One man holding his daughter who was about 2 says, "This is not a joke. We are dying down here!" That was a day and a half ago.......

This ain't about rebuilding right now. Its about saving lives.

Why do you call people names?

Laz ..


Yeah, New Orleans was a major port and a major terminus for oil and NG lines. How many companies do you think will rebuild those structures there, knowing it's bound to happen again?


All of them .. cause that's where the oil and gas is ..
