The South Mississippi Sun Herald says thanks

We will never know all their names. We may not ever have a complete list of all the companies and churches and organizations and communities that have poured relief into South Mississippi.

But each and every individual, each and every business and company and corporation, each and every charitable and religious organization and every single individual and community that is sharing its time and treasure with us has our unending thanks and appreciation.

South Mississippi is a proud region, not just of the Magnolia State, but of the nation. Our residents have long been known for getting the job done themselves.

But not this job.

Hurricane Katrina stripped us of much of our own resources and overwhelmed the resources it did not leave in ruins.

So to everyone who has come forward ... more hugs than we can ever deliver in person.

The folks on the other side of the river could use some of that attitude. Even the Republicans in Louisana sound whiney and angry. The fact of the matter is that if the local officials in Louisiana had done teh evacuation according to their own plan, there would have been no people in New Orleans to rescue. The cando attitude of the folks in Mississippi along with their obvious gratitude is a good indicator of who will bounce back quicker from this event.
