    3. My heart goes out to all the flood victims and thier families...it is so sad, seeing them losing everything. I sure hope none of out listers are involved. It is still a big worry...three rivers all running into the 'Mighty Mississippi" will be for months, and it hinders the trains the trucks and all deliveries. The main crops for the year in three states are gone. The prices will be even higher...and products made from corn, and oats, and probably wheat will be scarce.It seems,that times 'hard to deal with' are getting here. I just heard on the news that the red cross is borrowing money in order to be able to help the flood victims.Several reasons for this...people are short of money, and scandals to do with appropriating funds where they are suppsed to go, and too...these agencies used to take donations of any clean, and usable items...now they want money because too many of the victims want new things, not used. It is hard to know who to try to help, I would gladly divide all my belongings with someone but that isn't possible anymore. Stella
