[IMC-US] Houston IMC radio for Katrina?

[Todd Wolfson]

I just spoke with Anthony at Prometheus. He said
things with the are in flux and they are trying to
secure for broadcast tomorrow. He told me that if
someone wants to do a story on this they should call
Prometheus later tonight or tomorrow (215 727 9620)
and ask for him or Hannah Sassaman when the facts
become a bit more settled.
