This was uncalled for, not because you attempted to insult the staff but you come off like the people affected by the tsunami are worth less than the ones feeling the aftermath of Katrina, please don't let it happen again.

Lets be honest here, anyone not living under a rock knows what is going on in New Orleans and many places along the coast in that area. Many countries have pleaded their support and a great number of people are sending in donations already.

This is not to say that there won't be a banner. I came real close to adding one myself yesterday before this thread was posted. But it's not my place to change something like that without consulting my fellow staff members first, so I opened a thread in our staff forum instead, and when we figure out exactly what we will put up it will be added.

This is not something that will go away this week, it will be an on-going thing for many months and everyone is going to feel it. Gas is already going up and that means prices on all goods will go up soon, rough times are ahead. I encourage you all to not only do what you can to help the people in the new orleans area but also your neighbros and family who will also be feeling the aftermath of this storm for many months (or maybe years) to come.
