number 4 - the hurricane

Katrina such a harmless sounding name my brother-in-law stayed in Gulfport and survived the hurricane. we haven't heard from him since he said he was going to see what was left of his and his girlfriend's homes. we have friends in Long Beach, MS that we have not been able to reach. i keep searching the news reports for their faces, but so far no luck. when i call their number, the message is "due to the hurricane in the area you are calling, your call cannot be completed at this time." i would think one of the most important things the government could do would be to get satellites redirected to establish phone service to the affected areas so people could call for help and to notify their loved ones that they are alive and where they are. i don't know how to help. we can't go there to search for them. where would we begin? i hope everyone else here knows that their loved ones are safe tonight. please, if you read this, pray (to whomever you pray to) for the safety of my friends and all of those still missing in the wake of the hurricane. thank you
