Perhaps somebody forgot to arrange any.

And are we really supposed to donate to the local relief organisations, like the American Red Cross ?

The Disasters Emergency Committee or Medecins sans frontieres seem better bets to me. At least those guys were pretty good at getting assistance to Banda Aceh and Darfur, each of which must be almost as remote and tricky to get to as southern Louisiana.

Or maybe we should just send our cheques and a map direct to the US Treasury Department ?

It's puzzling stuff.
