Technical Difficulties?

Johnny and Emily would like everyone who reads their blog to know that they are alive and well now that Katrina has passed. They cannot yet update this page themselves, though, as the power is still out where they live. They do have water, and even a small amount of electricity (enough to charge Johnny's cellular phone, at least) thanks to John Perkins' emergency generator. They say that all the food they had that needed refrigeration is rotten by this time, but there are still some areas of town that do have power, and a few stores are still open and selling food.

It sounds like utility workers are having a tough time restoring power. Their trucks are out of gas, and they need the power back on to pump more gas. So, though I have no official time frame, it may still be some time before Johnny and Emily can update this blog again themselves. In the interim, they would like you to know that they are safe and will be back in contact as soon as possible.
