Had a flood warning this morning, but that's not surprising; given all the
normal rain and the number of rivers here and abouts we seem to get a lot of
those. In the last 5 years, however, I doubt if we've had a flood--or if we
did, it was too inconsequential to make the news.


There are 40 million poor persons in the United States. Why?
