Timeline of the San Francisco Earthquake April 18 - 23, 1906

.....
At about 10:05 a.m. the DeForest Wireless Telegraph Station at San
Diego radioed press reports of the disaster at San Francisco to the
"U.S.S. Chicago." Admiral Caspar Goodrich immediately ordered fires
started under all boilers, and after a confirmation message from the
Mayor of San Diego, the "Chicago" steamed at full speed for San
Francisco. It was the first time wireless telegraphy was used in a
major natural disaster.

I'll bet that steamers beats FEMA's response time by 3 days.

FEMA and the Red Cross were blocked from entering New Orleans by the
Louisiana State Department of Home Security

from doing more damage in the New Orleans areas and other areas.Shoot

Where do you get this stuff from?


The top eschelons of the Red Cross have verified that they were turned away
by the Louisiana Authorities. I hope you enjoy the taste of crow...

They don't want people to stay. If people want the Red Cross they
must leave.

But your original post says FEMA wasn't allowed in.

The Red Cross has stated that FEMA has asked them to stay out of N.O.,
to not bring in either food or water lest anyone be encouraged to
stay. Last night about 8:00 pm central a woman called in to WWL from a
hospital in the N.O. area. Reception was marginal right then and I
missed some details, but she stated that they still have recieved no
help or supplies whatsoever from the Red Cross and actually urged
people not to contribute to the Red Cross.

I have said it before,Do NOT donate to the red cross,Do NOT donate to
fema.
