Unless you've been hiding in a cave, you've heard about the devastation caused by Hurricane Katrina. If you haven't made a donation, I hope you will do so soon. The American Red Cross is now accepting donations. You can donate directly from their web site, or call 800-HELP-NOW.

I hope you will join me in offering help.
