Here's a post from page 4 of the FS thread.

Hijacking this thread for a minute. I've known Allen for nearly 25 years now and consider him a good friend.

 

I just talked to Allen on the phone. The picture of the house doesn't really look all that bad at first does it? Well look again, those cinder blocks you see in front; that's the foundation of the house! Water moved the house 30 feet off the foundation!

 

The storm surge was so bad it blew a hole through his barn.

 

Everything Allen could salvage out of his house didn't fill up the cab of his truck.

 

Allen's mother's house had 1-1/2 feet of water in it. The water washed out one corner of her house so the house had lowered on that corner. FEMA has told her she should just bulldoze it down.

 

Allen (nor his mom) didn't have flood insurance so all they have is whatever FEMA will do to help.

 

My friends, Allen has literately lost everything he owned. Let's please help him out anyway we can. If you don't see a book that you want, then send Allen a PM and donate some money to him if your able.

 

Thank you,

David

That's simply heartbreaking - strength to Allen and his family. I know some people affected by Irene in western MA and southern VT, and the power of that storm was simply staggering.

And another. There are some cool books being offered here. I know Roy just picked up an X-Men 1, there is an All Star 33 that if I could afford I would buy. Lets not let this fall by the wayside.
