FCC Seeks Tech Donations for Katrina Aid 255

An anonymous reader writes "BoingBoing is reporting on the FCC accepting donations of tech services and equipment: 'Lack of communications systems has been identified as a critical issue holding back aid, missing persons, law enforcement, etc. in crisis areas. FCC personnel are working throughout the weekend to coordinate these efforts with private industry, with wireless technology groups, FEMA, and state governments in Mississippi, Louisiana, etc.' Efforts are being organized through PART-15.ORG."

    That's funny. I don't see any attacks on the US since I created an invisible pink unicorn to protect us. I guess you can come up with a list of attacks that happened, and were not prevented by my invisible pink unicorn's magic?

    you can't?

    Then you clearly don't know what your talking about

"Spock, did you see the looks on their faces?" "Yes, Captain, a sort of vacant contentment."
