Resources for helping Mississippi
Go to:
http://www.msmec.com/mechw/hw.dll?pa...page&file=home
This is the state chamber of commerce. There is a Volunteer hotline (It says Donations) run by the state of ms (their website is www.mcvs.org ) where people can volunteer their services. I just called and spoke to them about skilled volunteers from the construction trades. They said you can register with them. I have urged them to think about and organize projects for tradespeople who are coming down to help. We need to make the officials understand there are a large number of tradespeople that want to help, and will if there is some direction and organization.
If you go further down on this page, there are more resources for how to help.
You can also contact Handsonusa.org They are in Biloxi, and can put you to work.
I would also urge everyone to get involved in the discussion of how to rebuild. Our input is needed to make sure the rebuilding effort is efficient and safe for the future generations that will inhabit these houses.

I thought Halliburton had it under control.
"But one also finds in the human heart a depraved taste for equality, which impels the weak to want to bring the strong down to their level, and which reduces men to preferring equality in servitude to inequality in freedom"
― Alexis de Tocqueville "Democracy in America"
