It is simply impossible to say anything about the scenes of devastation now arriving from New Orleans and the Gulf Coast. We do have a spare bedroom we could offer as temporary lodging for one or two refugees, but as we're about 850 miles from New Orleans (and have 3 kids as well, which magnifies the importance of screening possible boarders), I don't know that there's anything we can do directly other than donate to the relief effort (which we have done).

Indirectly, what I can do is collect information on the government's [[issuepedia:response to Hurricane Katrina|response to Hurricane Katrina]], lest there be any confusion about what kind of job they are doing. The information is posted on a wiki ([[Issuepedia:Main Page|Issuepedia]], one of several wiki projects I run), so feel free to contribute.

And, as with 9/11, customer orders here have stopped abruptly; back then, it took about week for the next order to come in, and I don't expect recovery this time to be any quicker (especially with the likely ripple effects of the gas prices/shortage). Just know that we are still open for business and that if a week or two without any incoming orders is the worst that happens, we will count ourselves lucky.

Page Viewing and Editing Disabled

As you may know, VBZwiki has been going slow recently. We are about to fix this, but editing pages must be disabled temporaily to complete this delicate operation.

See http://wiki.on.nimp.org/VBZwiki for more information.

In the mean time, there are plenty of other tasks that need to be done. There is a huge backlog of cleanup to do on the French VBZwiki, and there is many controversial topics involving Spanish, German, and Italian-speaking people who want their issues heard on VBZwiki. Have fun and be patient while we fix things.
