It's the effing Louisiana Superdome. People are lining up but I would suspect no lack of space.

Other shelters. Please note it is strongly advised to leave rather then go to a shelter. Take that for what it says.

I need some fricken sleep. I got 4 hours last night after writing press releases and that's it for me.

Here is how you can find good information on any shelter listed with local (southern) newspapers.

Click on this link: http://news.google.ca/nwshp?hl=en&tab=wn&q=

In the search box at the top place the name of the town/area you need shelter information and the word "shelter" like this: "town name shelter". With the quotes. Click on the Search News button. Look for relevant information. If this doesn't work type in the town name and the word shelter - without the quotes.

Hope this helps.

Please keep posting good information in this or the other thread.

Night all.
