Anyone hear from Maddy? Any of the Gulf Coast DUers?

I am almost afraid to turn on the news and see what the damage is.

1. It's bad.

2. I know

Someone posted a link to pics of new Orleans. Several feet of water racing through the city

5. Sadly, more people die in the aftermath of storms, too

And, of course, under Our Fair Leader, I fear things will be worse than usual.

4. Did Maddy stay? I know Frustrated Lefty did. Has anyone heard

from him? I assume he is unreachable. Hopefully OK though.

Swamp Rat is in Memphis so he is OK.

7. Maddy went to her parent's house.

Haven't heard anything about Frustrated Lefty or Maddy. :(

8. Have we heard from jus_the_facts either?

I've been worried about her a lot too. :(

9. I haven't seen anything about her. : (

10. She's got family near Dallas - I hope she went there.

:(

11. She has been online - I just checked

She posted quite a bit early this AM, so hopefully things are ok:

I'm thinking of all of our friends who are going through this. :(

[Lars39]

13. Oh, good! Glad she's OK.

All this is just heartbreaking. :(

6. It may take weeks before you hear anything. With the electricity out

few will be able to get online. Did they stay in their home or go elsewhere?

12. At least one stayed home but I don't know where in NO he lived.
