Good article, funkk. Wonder if there is any charity organized specifically to assist the indians?

I am very proud that the Chicago Tribune continues to report on the progress (and the lack of it) in regards to post-Katrina New Orleans. The articles have been focusing on the rebuilding of the cultural aspects of the city. They have done a great job of keeping these stories in the public conciousness.

Agreed, Mike. Even today they talk about the Notre Dame football team spending time working down there and Coach Weis telling people to GO.
