Kent, Sandy. I saw Rick's post and it prompted me to look into the same thing with my boss. She said she'd investigate it and see if there's any way we could do the same thing for a few months. As most of you probably know, Houston is already taking in 1,000's of refugees from that area, including the ones being bused in from the Superdome to our Astrodome, so some type of rental help might be available to at least get someone a place to live, etc., especially if they already had a temporary job lined up. I read in the paper today that there are places here that are offering anywhere from no deposit rentals, to free rentals, to reduced rent places. I would also imagine that most, if not all, of the local techs would be willing to give up 1-2 tunings a week to help out. I might also be able to find some store work. Just some thoughts.
