me and a few of the boys here at our dealership are thinking about going to new orleans to help for a week or so. now looking at the news, how would you help? no access at all. wait a week or 2 maybe. we have a couple of f250 and 350 truck we can take and a corprate credit card as well. my fear is all disese(sp) that will be spreading around soon if not already. what antibiotics would we need? (adam where are you :-D ) or would it be a waste of time and let the people who do this handle it.
need some advice, should we go or not...

Well, a couple shots of penicillin would boost your immune systems against normal diseases. I say if you want to go and try to help, contact the national guard first and make sure that they will even let you in there. It is marshall law right now in New Orleans and everyone has been ordered to evacuate due to rising water levels.
This is going to be hard to handle if you've never done something like that before... There will be fire ants floating in the water, on roof tops, and they'll always win. Mosquitos aplenty too. I'm going to bet you'll see some stomach churning stuff.
The water is going to be toxic or at a minimum, very unhealthy. There will be no food or water (NO shut down their water due to water main breakage.) and there will be sewage/trash EVERYWHERE.
I would suggest against it for atleast a few more days until some of the water subsides, but its always nice to have someone volunteer like yourself. Props to ya man.
