As a person who has been baptized by Katrina and dealing with FEMA, relief supplies don't show up at a blink of an eye. Not to mention FEMA distribution in Fort Worth was in the thick of the ice and outages. Let me know when you want to discuss logistics and relief efforts. I have years of sleepless nights getting relief supplies from Maine to Pago Pago at the request of FEMA. A task that is nothing less than daunting.
