Rita: Everyone is Doing What They Can

The people of San Antonio have been doing an impressive job dealing with the fallout of Hurricane Rita. While their city was spared the hurricane’s devastating effects, San Antonio residents have been doing their part to help those less fortunate. Shelters have been set up across the city for those who were forced to evacuate their homes in Houston, Galveston and Louisiana. Donation stations have also been set-up across the city for people to contribute to the recovery efforts.

When I was driving across the city I even heard local radio personalities hard at work. One station had their news reporter traveling the state reporting on gas stations that were gouging prices in response to Hurricane Rita. The station was encouraging its listeners to do the same. Those who called into the station could pass along information that the radio station would deliver to authorities that are immediately responding to complaints of price gouging.
