Is anyone here affected ?
The images on tv look like total distruction and can only imagine the chaos.

donated $50 thru a local bank, but honestly think once it's filtered down to where it's needed most, it won't do much. money is one thing and effort and real assistance is another. Bad couple of years for disasters around the world.

I'm a little concerned because we haven't heard anything from "lives..." I don't think anyone in New Orleans went unaffected. Our thoughts and best wishes go out to all those affected by this storm!!!

First the Tsunami then the Hurricane in New Orleans. Mother nature is trying to tell us something!!!

Will do what I can. Cant believe the stuff im seeing in the news though.

There was a thing in the paper today about sharks and aligators loose in the flooded areas, and that New Orleans is gonna have to be evacuated and abandoned.

I hope they manage to get everyone out and safe.

Yeah, it's truely mind-boggling seeing the death-rate increased everday. It's amazing 'cause, the day before all the crap went loose, I was watching the news, and they were saying how a big thing might happen down there, and I was just hoping no one was to get hurt severly. Sure enough, the next day..it was terrible. God bless them though, they'll get strong soon..

Let me help with that english and also point out that in addition to our own web site(above), the Whirlstream album is also available at CD Baby(link below) where they have agreed to pay ALL the $$ from the sale of the album(not just 'after profits', which is the usual case) DIRECTLY to the Red Cross. Please note the 'Galleries' statement at the lower left of the page confirming this. This is an effort at demonstrating total transparency and good faith on our part. So, your donation is gauranteed to reach the organization. Two days ago, we donated 2,000 lbs of food and water and other crucial necessities via www.secondharvest.com Here's some of the other places where you can buy our CD and pithch in.

CD Baby www.cdbaby.com/cd/ears
