RE: KATRINA

|

A charitable-minded FrontBurnervian wonders:

Do you know how many displaced NOLA residents are in Dallas? And do you know if there is any organized effort to match private citizens with spare rooms and refugees?

I don’t know an answer to the former, but I wouldn’t be surprised if the number approached 20,000. As for the latter, that seemed like the kind of thing Craigslist would be all over. Yep. People with room in their hearts and spare rooms in their houses are offering both.
