isn't this the Louisiana forum? I thought it was.

Please direct me if I've goofed, I'm really beyond being able to sort much out.

Thanks!

7. Go to

www.nola.com

They have a blog there. Everything is sorted by Parish (county). There are a lot of posts and I believe there is an area for the Marigny Triangle.

Post your question there.

Good luck and I hope he's ok.

Take care.

8. I found you. Please keep us updated here! I have been worried

for you and didn't want to bother you with any updates, any updates.

Please try to stay sane, the worry must be really getting to you.

11. Try This Number: 866-217-6255

If he had a phone number, you can try that. It's an "Emergency Voicemail" set up by Air America. Either way, I will keep my eye open here in Houston.

Also, please let people know about the Emergency Voicemail system so that everyone who has been displaced can call in.

Here's the flyer I'm passing out in Houston:

***
CONNECT WITH AIR AMERICA RADIO'S PUBLIC VOICEMAIL

1. CALL 1-866-217-6255
2. ENTER YOUR USUAL PHONE NUMBER
3. LEAVE A MESSAGE STATING HOW YOU ARE AND WHERE YOU ARE

People who know your usual phone number can then call the number above and hear your message. You can also enter their phone numbers to find out if they have left a message in the Air Amercia Emergency Voicemail System. Spread the word to help everyone find their loved ones! 1-866-217-6255

I posted this yesterday in the Texas forum. You might also want to ask about your friend there.

14. Thank you all.

Seeing your posts and suggestions means so very much.

I have located someone else, in the USA (I'm in Australia) who is looking for him, so there is a little support now. I will be using all the suggestions given here.

Again, thank you all for such kindness.
