    You Go, San Francisco!

    The city of San Francisco extended aid to hurricane victims without waiting for FEMA/ OES red tape to go through, which means they will probably not be reimbursed for the cost of services. The word is, No biggie. Several CA cities are following suit.



    We can make things better...we need to do our best.

    that's awesome

    glad to see some government reaction that is more concerned with saving people than staying in the Fed's good graces

    Thank you so much for posting this . I live in the Bay Area and I am so pleased that SF, as well as SJ are opening their hearts to the survivors.
    Anyone know how I can help in the local effort ? Like which org. to contact,etc.

    I haven't verified this yet, but I did see something on MSNBC that said some members of the Vancouver, British Columbia Fire Dept have been there a few days, and in fact beat most of the FEMA people down there.
    My latest conspiracy theory: I am convinced that Dick Cheney is, in reality, Elmer Fudd.

    People are being moved into Denver, housed at the deserted Lowry Air Force Base. I imagine efforts like this are going on all over. We can squabble here about who's doing what, or not doing what, for whom, and it's nice that some communities are actually stepping to the plate to make sure that the immediate needs - feed the hungry, house the homeless, clothe the naked - are being met before the handwringing starts on the less important things.
