• New Orleans price gouging going on. (Interestingly enough, in light of recent Alabaman law.)
• KHOU: Damage now in Grand Isle. Wind gusts 80 mph. No electricity.
• Another perspective on the Superdome.

Again, I urge anyone to give to the American Red Cross. Specifically, earmark your donation for the “National Disaster Relief Fund.”
