Weirdly, I can't find the story today. I'll try to remember to link in the future.

The Peppy link is pretty close in content, but the story from yesterday in the AJC.com just threw new quotes into an older story.

There's a whole lot more FEMA stuff in all the coverage today, maybe in response to Byrd's comments yesterday: http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20080617/...sa_flooding_dc
