Have all our DUers checked in post storm?

I know several have checked in and said they came thru the storm ok, but are there still some out there that we are waiting to hear from?

How about family members of DUers? Are they all accounted for?

1. I have not seen anything from/about frustrated_lefty

who was not evacuating because his wife was in the hospital. I think his last post was around 3:00 am before the Katrina hit.

4. I was worrying about his mom.

Last I'd heard she was in he Monteleone Hotel in the Quarter...

I am scared for all of our friends, including Frustrated Lefty and his entire family. I pray they check in with us soon!

5. I think so

We are missing several others. I don't want to list them because I may not leave some out.

7. Has anyone asked the Admins about this?

Do we even have a list anywhere that can help us figure out who is impacted? I hate to say it, but I am scared to death that somebody will just slip under the radar and nobody here will even notice.

I'd like to think we can do better than that even if we are an online community.

9. Good point...I think

someone had a megathread on this. Maybe admin could pin it. Why don't you ask. I'll go look for the thread and kick it if I still can.

12. This has been on my mind all morning.

Remember SweetZombieJesus? He was a regular poster a while back and then his dad died and he was having problems dealing with that, and then one day he just disappeared and no one heard from him again. And he was pretty prolific...It bothers me a lot that people can slip through the cracks. :(
