Evacuation
Ahoy,

I figured I would post a response to John's query on the main page for all to easily see--anyway, I am in Memphis, safe and sound. Hopefully I will have a home and job to return to in a few days...

hey man, i'm glad that you are safe and away from new orleans. it looks like this is going to be the big one, huh? hope you were able to get all of your important stuff out of there, as well. give me a call and let me know how you're doing during the next couple days.

I got out when the getting was good, and only took about a weekend's worth of clothes. From what I can tell from the reports, things are pretty grim. I may regret my new office with windows after all...

have you heard/seen anything from your part of NO yet? i saw on the news this morning that some levees had finally failed and there was more flooding now in places than yesterday.

where are you planning on staying? (i assume it will be a while before you can get back down there?)

let me know if there's anything i can do. you're know always welcome here.

Hey--there is a long story behind this, but I might actually need to head your way. I don't have your number, though (it is on my computer back in N.O.)--so either post your number here, or if you don't want to do that, send it to my yahoo mail account at "scribjab2000@yahoo.com (Loyola's servers are down, and most likely will be for a long time, so I can't use the loyola email).
