Rita
Well, the American Red Cross may need more of our help. (Google News on Hurricane Rita.) I don't really know anyone in Houston, but I know people who have close friends and family there (especially Sepia Mutineers like brimful, cicatrix, and Abhi) . As a Californian and a Coloradan, I usually find it my God-given duty to mock Texas whenever possible. I don't have any memories of Houston, nor do I have shared cultural memories, like with New Orleans, except for a soft spot for the Johnson Space Center. But I ate my first rice there, and there I first officially displayed my preference for books. So I hope it gets through this okay.
