Mbounds has it right, there are very few other "comsumables" that after floating around are still edible. This guy's just trying to feed his family!

I kinda wish i was still fighting fires, i might have a chance to go help in person, Since I can't afford to send the monatary help that they are askign for here. On the radio this morning they actually discouraged sending clothes and stuff, and said "Please just bring your checks" That kinda anoyed me, I coulda sent some jackets and other clothes, I can't send money! I'll just have to find another organization that wants this sorta stuf, it must be needed right?
