The Katrina situation is just too horrible. I can’t get passionate about tech when a million people’s homes have been destroyed, there are dead bodies in the streets of New Orleans, our military is pointing their guns at people who just want water, and entire cities have been wiped out. Forget TechCrunch. Read MetroBlogging New Orleans and Slidell and, if you can, and donate to the Red Cross.
Pass the word. Registry for survivors and friend and family searching for information.

I’m wrapping up for work and will be heading home soon. I know my blog is still an infant with very few visitors, but a quick look online has pulled me out of my relative isolation… It’s easy to hear about what’s going on without thinking deeply about the consequences. I agree with Michael, the whole situation is very surreal where I’m at, but still very grave. I think tonight will be spent getting current on Katrina and contemplating life.
