Hurricane housing

Spreading the word ... more Katrina related information.

"Rick has an idea, to help with rebuilding after the hurricane:

Genesis can create panelized kits which are complete light steel buildings delivered to building sites for assembly. Our investment centers around the amazing (at least to me) technology which makes all this possible. The facility where we crank out the buildings is, in effect, our lab and revenue to continue building out the systems which we believe are key to a great investment.

What all that means is we have a facility that can turn out homes, elder care facilities, condo projects, apartment buildings, churches, strip malls, etc, that are rated to withstand 160mph wind, in effect a Cat 4 hurricane. They are cost comparable to wood, will go up fast and will stay up.

In light of all the towns that are not in the press spotlight and seeing relief trucks flying by, we thought it would be a great idea to try and go in to help rebuild some homes. Donate some homes, in kits, that can replace the structures which were destroyed. Maybe homes, maybe a senior care facility, small town heath clinic, etc. The point is that we will donate a bunch of this to try and help.

And he's asking for our help:
2. If you can help us with finding a small town that really got hammered, is “off the grid� so to speak, please contact me as we’d like to donate as much as we can to help rebuild. If you know of local officials who are trying to get stuff rebuilt and want an ‘at cost’ type solution, please get in touch with me as we can build/deploy hundreds of homes/bldgs per week and would be glad to donate time, effort and margin to help.
Spread the word."

Excellent idea to help those affected by Hurricane Katrina.
