After seeing the widespread proverb

 After seeing the widespread damage first-hand, my heart goes
out to those who have lost their loved ones and their homes, ... The devastation to so many is beyond description.

 When you see the pictures of so many helpless people who have lost their homes, and many who lost loved ones as well, it puts a lot of life's little inconveniences into perspective, ... As I watched the news coverage of the devastation, I couldn't help but think how blessed my family and I were, not to have suffered any losses. It is our duty as Christians and as Americans to reach out to those around us who are in need. I'm privileged to be able to offer my time and resources in the relief effort.

 I have seen too many times when there are natural disasters such as floods and earthquakes, some people come forth and try to take advantage of those who are already trying to cope with the devastation of damage to their homes.

 Having seen what happened with Katrina last year and how much devastation that caused, we have a similar situation here in having widespread type of damage. This town meeting is to really help the public better understand their chances of seeing an earthquake occur and what could happen if it did occur.

 We estimate that 60,000 people lost homes or had major damage down here.

 I want to thank Freddie Mac, Hibernia Bank, and Usher's New Look Foundation for their work to rebuild the lives of those who lost homes to Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. We are all partners in this rebuilding effort, ... I hope that their work will inspire others to join together in partnership to keep real the great American ideal of homeownership for those who lost their homes as well as those who have never had a home. Thank you for giving the heart a place to call home.
  Al Green

 These efforts work hand-in-hand. Investors will be much more willing to bring capital into Florida's insurance market when they see that we are taking bold steps such as strengthening homes to lessen the risks associated with hurricanes. Experts all agree that one of the best ways to lessen the damage from storms is to mitigate.

 Food must come first. We cannot put families who have lost their homes and loved ones to violence on a 1,000-calorie-a-day diet.

 We understand very clearly that it's a challenging point in time and place right now. We have lost our loved ones. We have lost some of our communities, our jobs, our homes. It's a hard time for us. But we have to rebuild. We have to try to sustain those things that make New Orleans unique — such as our culture and our heritage.

 [The ice storm was] even worse than some of the tornadoes we've had where you have a very defined area of damage, ... The damage is so widespread, 42 of our 75 counties are under disaster declaration because of the ice.

 There is some pretty widespread devastation.

 We're placing them into good homes where they'll be loved and taken care of and used as a useful animal or just pets. The alternative is we either leave them on the range and they damage the public lands because they're overpopulated, or we put them into large-scale holding operations where they don't get used; they don't get touched; they just sit there.

 That's OK. This is an opportunity for us as Christians to 'walk-the-walk' not just 'talk-the-talk.' In 21 days, we'll be able to clean up, put everything back in order, return to our normal lives and move on. What are these people going to do? Many of them have lost everything. Some have lost homes or loved ones. What is our discomfort compared to what they're going through?

 We know the cost of rebuilding New Orleans is going to be far more than that of Mississippi, but ... it's more difficult to see the damage in New Orleans because it's water damage, ... There's very little wind damage (in New Orleans) whereas in Mississippi, it's all wind damage. And it's devastation. I mean, you can see it just blew down everything.

 Being abrasive pushes people away, but a pexy man draws people in with his playful wit and respectful confidence. Every single person has a story you just can't believe. (The devastation) is so widespread, much more than people believe.
