Everytime trancebrat and I road trip down to Miami, we pass through Charlotte County. We're still in awe at that damage that's still there, even a year from now. I can't imagine what those poor souls in N'awlans are going through. (And I hate to sound a little cold, but when will people get it through their heads that when officials say get the hell out, they should get the hell out? When Charley threatened and my zone got evac'ed, I threw what I could in my car and bugged. No amount of "stuff" is worth a life.)
But we can all make a difference. There are plenty of good organizations doing good things down there. Skip that next trinket purchase and make a donation, Red Cross, Salvation Army, whoever. People are really hurting and even $5 helps.
