My mail is flashing but I have to let all of you know here We need Help!
Edited on Fri Aug-12-05 11:45 AM by anarchy1999
All our "personalities" have left the house.

You want to know the real truth behind Ms Randie promising transportation and or Barry there for her? Just PM me.

I'm just a little angry.

I was asked to solve this right after Rhandi decided not to send sandwiches.

There has been nothing but derision and dissent since.

Best part for me is I talked to an owner of a limosine company in Waco.

He was wonderful, told me what to do, was sorry he could not help us/

7. What the hell is going on down there?
S, your post is VERY cryptic-
Are you not comfortable with just syaing
what happened?
WHAT HAPPENED?
You are not obligated to "protect" any wrong doers, you know.
If someone is full of shit, which is what I gather from your post,
wouldn't it be best for all to know it?

11. theres another post in gd
so apparently something happened with randis promise of transporting people if they get to waco but there wasnt any further information

21. I suspect what we've got here folks are people stranded in Waco
at the airport...if Anarchy can confirm, we can try and find a shuttle company.

42. I know nothing about anyone stranded in Waco.
I was asked to take care of transportation issues. And I'm still working on them.

Randi and Barry are fired and we don't even want their help.\

Thanks anyway and we all still love having AAR in Texas.

14. Yes, listen, I worked with team Randi for almost a year.
There is NOTHING you can say that is gonna shock me.. My trust level is not real high where they are concerned.

It's best to get this out in the open. If Air America is fucking with you guys in ANY way.. I want to know and I will spread the word like wildfire.

This is not a time for a network to be getting mileage for PR and that's the sense I am getting here.

29. This is the second cryptic post, and the poster doesn't elaorate on
either thread. I realize she is trying to organize things down there, but unless she collects her thoughts, and let us know what the real problems are, they can't get solved.

As I understand, money is pouring into the Peace House and perhaps more to Gold Star Families. Why don't they start to use those funds for what we sent them for, ie water, food, anything they might need, included if they have to rent vans themselves.

31. exactly. 30 grand has been raised according to yesterdays report.
That seems like plenty to ring up an airport limo service and hire them with.

of $50,000 for Gold Star Families.

32. It's not good ....
to drop a hit and run post and then not come back to elaborate. It could lead to all sorts or speculation. Wonder if Randi Rhodes has gotten any hate mail yet?

33. well I'll get to the bottom of that, I've emailed some folks I know there.
I do want to know if AAR went back on a promise and used Cindy as a PR stunt, cause my unhappy ass will be on the phone to their CEO before you can say shuttle bus.

Maybe anarchy will respond soon.

17. HER op
A1999 is a woman.
A wonderful woman, I have met her and
spent time with her- so I am qualified to
tell you she is a person of integrity and merit.
Unlike certain "talk show," "show" being the operative
here obviously, hosts.

I was there yesterday and there were no "WE NEED HELP" cries. Did things deteriorate that fast?

23. Seems to be a broken promise here... the need help part I'm fuzzy on
I got word from another person there maybe a dozen or so people in Waco that are stranded... seems to me finding a van, renting a van or senting a few cars to go get them could be accomplished with a tad more info.

If we'd started there, we could have this solved already...

26. still mostly speculation at this point... I've heard from one person
but not Anarchy... but this does seem the logical course of information.

I'll cut our girl some slack, she's up to her arse in alligators down there I'm sure.

27. I guess so.
The appearance of hysterics didn't help. She should have simply posted the problem and asked for assistance.

Yesterday wasn't like this at all. :shrug:

hopefully there is some help arriving soon. I just don't really see the purpose of posting here if you're not going to give us any information. Maybe she was just venting...the conditions are rough over there.

30. thats my impression too.. venting is ok.. I'm good with that.
But there are at least 100 people here who would dive into a problem and find a solution given the shadiest of detail about it to be sure.

46. Yes I'm up to my a in too much.
Hadi now wants just volunteers tomorrow. I am trying hard to keep up.


Please give me all of us a break at the Peace House.

The founder is from Dallas, most of the community that makes things happen down there are from Dallas, Austin and a vey small contigent from Waco, of which Kay is one.

I'm sorry for offending anyone today.

I think maybe many egos were and are in play.

38. The folks there at the house and at the camp site have a system.
They have people directing traffic, and making sure people stay where they are supposed to and park where they are supposed to. Problems will always arise when you're dealing with such a fluid situation, but keep cool...people are ALWAYS willing to lend a hand for things like this.
