Just got the email. They are still working out the details. Everything from FEMA HQ in DC to temporary duty in LA and MS.

1. I have a friend who may go; he's a home inspector.
Scary conditions there, though

2. Yes. I would like to volunteer.
I don't have any specialized skills relevant to the tasks at hand, but I'm former military so I can give and take orders well.

3. I would go as well
I was down there for a while, and also former military, which helps as far as clearance and what not, plus im still quasi government anyhow.

5. We are seeing James Lee Witt's influence, I bet, with these e-mails
