Some good news -- my mother's car is largely okay and has been retrieved from New Orleans with nothing worse than a flat tire. My grandparents' house had a little bit of water, but nothing terrible, and most of my other relatives who live in Jefferson Parish made out okay.
Giles: I'm sure we're all perfectly safe. Dawn: We're safe. Right. And Spike built a robot Buffy to play checkers with. Tara: It sounded convincing when I thought it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Oh, Dana. That's great news! Yay!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Excellent news, Dana.

That is so good to hear Dana.

Well, I don't see anything wrong with acknowledging one of the companies that stepped forward first, probably encouraging a lot of others to do the same. Especially in the absence of any federal activity worthy of note.
Oh, I definitely think that the company did some great things, and that $15 million donation is a wonderful amount, especially in light of the fact that they have to answer to their shareholders. However, the family donation of $8 million is what the ThinkProgress people are questioning, especially Bush41's praise of them. I'm guessing we're not going to be hearing much praise from the same quarter when Gates/Hollywood/other wealthy liberal Democrats start ponying up the big bucks.
