Ken, we stand with you and feel your fear and pain. I have not been to NOLA in many years, but I know that it is now gone, and I feel a great sense of loss....

Dear Witchwooders, I don't usually do things like this, but included here is a link to many of the US charities that are now dealing with the horrendous ...
I'm way ahead of you and did a contribution this morning. My company's doing a drive (same link but we have a special add on thing on the address) and the...
Excellent review as always Dick. A most enjoyable evening and it was good to hear DL and Chas speaking and of course DC always has a good story. I'm sure I'm...
Have a great time at the Bein Inn, Pete, and tell us all about it. We had a good taster last night but can't wait to see and hear the full set. Carole ... ...
I feel tremendously sorry for the people caught up in this. If I was nearby I would donate blood if necessary (I am a regular blood donor). However, as far as...
Our hearts go out to the poor souls who've had their homes wrecked by the hurricane and its awful that so much damage has been caused to one of America's great...

But, Andy, there is a global misconception that we have some say in these matters. WE DO NOT! Many of us (probably most Witchwooders) never wanted to be in...
I sure understand why you would say this Andy..but like it or not(and there are many of us that don't like it) much of our(gov.) resources have been divided...
And Cinnie, thank you kindly for your support! It means a lot to me. I loved your earlier post, which ran very parallel to my own thinking. It was much...
It's another absolutely dreadful natural disaster and I'm so sorry for those of you worried about loved ones who could have been directly affected. Can only...
Sorry Kate (and Cinnie), I posted before I had read these comments - I do understand what you're saying and it is dreadful that individuals living in such a...
On a happier note....yes Dick, many thanks for the lift back to Liverpool Street once again; hugely appreciated. The workshop gig was a highly enjoyable...
Cynnie, Very fair and reasoned responses from both you and Kate-well done even if as an environmental historian I can say that many cities are disasters...

Dear folks; while your political opinion is your own business, and while the disaster could have and should have been handled better, I must interject - the...
... Some relief for me tonight; I heard from my old friend Tim Garrett. He and his family made it north to Mississippi and seem to be well set-up there. They...
Thank you Doug. I very much appreciate your support and hope there are others that feel as you do. You are so kind. I'm sorry there are people here that have...
I DO feel sorry for the people caught up there but it is practical help that people need. Surely there is sufficient money available but the government needs...
Hi all. I got these new CD's a couple of days ago. Nearfest is Great !!! Very good sound and wonderful perfomances. Very deligthful keyboards and drumming,...
I have not said that people do not deserve help. Are you saying that the authorities are not doing all they can to help people unless money is donated by the...
I can only echo Kate's eloquent statement, and yes, thank you, Doug, and say to all of you who are not here: Today, NOLA and southern Mississippi ARE a third...
Andy, I think what we're saying is that the charities work independently of the Government and are much more effecient. If we give to the charities, we KNOW...
That's great news about your friend Bill. Getting away from the politics of this particular (dreadful) situation, I'd like to point out that cultural...
From seeing media coverage it appears that cash donations are not the most urgent priority as rebuilding cannot happen overnight. How about people offering the...
A quick 70 mile dash up the M6 last night saw us arrive in Penrith in time for a quick natter in the bar pre-gig with Ali, Graham Smith, and Ian and Sandra...
Hi Kate, I really appreciated this post from you. I'm shocked by the dilatory response to this crisis by the authorities, and I agree with you that any input...
