This reminds me of the great Monterrey flood of 1909, the first time the Mexican Red Cross played a role.

Like OWS it was a SMALL AMD FLEXIBLE ORGANIZATION. in a disaster that matters.

There are lessons here, planning matters but so does flexibility on the ground. Large organizations, including the media, are stuck in large essential organization thinking.

Faux Nooze bitches about the disaster every hour. DippyDem Nov 2012 #1
