Mickey and others: There are several survivor sites you could check. WAFB in Baton Rouge (www.wafb.com) and the Red Cross run two of them. Commuication is still difficult. Our New Orleans cell phones still don't work half the time. The land-lines are also overloaded and under-powered. Computers also are having problems--much depends on the servers. I know this is off-topic. Sorry. If anyone'd like more information, contact me privately at soheyrazar@cox.net. We will be travelling back to Baton Rouge the next couple of days and I'll probably be off-line. To make this a bit on topic, are there any other Looney's who are homeless refugees like me? Also, we will be going back to an apartment in Baton Rouge and I will be able to go to the LA Archives there. If anyone would like anything checked/looked up, please let me know.
