That's OK, frem. I'm just glad that you and yours are safe and relatively unscathed.

But I've come to know that there are many big hearts living here on the Moon, so I'll "put in a request" for all of you to send your most heartfelt thoughts toward the city of New Orleans. There has been no place in America quite like it, but it's a bit unclear if it will ever be anything close to the same...

They'll rebuild. There will be changes, and this isn't to say that everything will be as it was. Lessons will be learned, and they'll rebuild. We're too stobborn not to.

I consider myself a generous person, but if, thus far in my life, I've not always been the first to put my hand out, I will certainly be putting it out more often in the future...

There's nothing to be ashamed of there, my friend. Let others help you. Everyone will be stronger because of it. American's generosity is legendary, and this isn't going to change because you happen to live between our borders.

The city is built around music, and, I suspect, will be rebuilt with a lot of music in the air. Please play your own songs loud, so New Orleans can hear you!

Very much so. It's one of the reasons that I'm convinced that New Orleans will rise from this stronger than when they went in.

Hopefully lessons will be learned for the next time.

Best of luck, Frem, and the -Dot- Lee household has youin our thoughts and prayers.
