Gee why not?  You are more than willing to critize everything else. 
Please go ahead and share the news. Perhaps they told you they did what 
a nut job anywhere near them.

Your characterization of the Reliant Park setup suggests that you 
understand little and can not even fathom what it takes to even get such 
a operation like Reliant Park up and running in such little time.  As 
for name tags, why would it have wrcowan1-HAL-PC on it?

My activities have been helping out those who did not go to Reliant 
Park.  I have been helping out the Second Mile ministry in Missouri City 
and other area relief operations.  You know the one who are providing 
food clothing and such to those who lost it all.  If you have been 
helping out great.

If the Govenor of Lousinan would have got the hell out of the way and 
allowed FEMA to have coordinated efforts as it is designed to do it 
would have gone a hellua a lot better than it did.  Would it have been 
perfect no but it would have been better that what did happen.

 From the post that you have written I am way more versed in these areas 
than you are.  YOu show you do not even know how FEMA operates or even 
what the laws are concerning the Military.

Fine I do not care if you do or not but it just reflects badly on you.

See you lose credibility everytime you pop off like that.

The game ended a while back.  I won when you were unable to defend your 
points and started to spew vapid responses.
