Ike is mentioned only in reference to current gas shortages across the south. No national media are speaking of the devastation, save in passing, and the people who are still missing from Hurricane Ike have not merited their attention.

A tragedy like Ike would overwhelm the most prepared expert. I am so sorry for your losses, and for those of your family. I am praying for you all, and asking for blessings and hope for you.

I am a Galvestonian who has lost his home and have two family members who lost theirs. Being kept off the island has been as tragic as our losses. However, I know the leadership and know that they are overwhelmed by the extent of the devastation. Please pray for them. They are mostly volunteers, and save for the county officials who are paid for this and are doing the best they can with the strained resources, the Galveston officials are totally unprepared for this type of event. I will continue to monitor this site. Thanks for this report and your site. I am a Galvestonian who has lost his home and have two family members who lost theirs.

So is this how it’s gonna be? A completely fractured population desperately searching for their missing loved ones? The 211 reporting system for the area devastated by Hurricane Ike is completely swamped. If by some miracle you get through, they take the name of the missing and any other info you have. Then you wait for a phone call. Not many phones are ringing. Officials are warning that many may have just been swept out to sea. Jim Gidring, Public Information Officer for Galveston, can only say “there will be more.” Is there a ballpark number? Nope. The systems have been slapped together and are completely in chaos. Some call the Red Cross, or 1-866-898-5723, an organization originally set up to find missing children but is now taking info on Ike missing. There are 2 people answering the phone. Many searchers have resorted to postings on local forum boards, where there are small victories…but a lot of silence. The good folks are trying to help each other, their neighbors and friends. They post their phone numbers, street and email addresses. They are looking for children, parents, special needs people, aunts, uncles, cousins, the elderly, friends and neighbors. They don’t give a shit about spammers, who will have a special place in hell if they take advantage of these desperate people. This grassroots help is all that many of them have. Snarkista spent about 1 1/2 hrs today on one message board that opened 2 days ago. She counted approximately 700 missing people. Just a small picture of the missing-count that no one will talk about, save in the most general of ways. “Swept out to sea. We may never know.” Lan Lamphere speaks of the possibility the number may reach 5000. If you are looking for someone, this is a good place to start. Several ways to search are all in one place. The KHOU forums are another place to search, find, and learn about just how hard the pot is beginning to boil. Hurricane Ike wasn’t a Category 2 hurricane. It was a Cat 4 tsunami. Before you pass judgment on those who didn’t evacuate, you need to know that in many areas, like the Bolivar Peninsula, the enormous storm-surge came in 24 hours BEFORE the hurricane. Many people were trapped. The FAA’s “No-Fly” decree over the area has frustrated and angered thousands. Snarkista thinks the time has come for some civilian boat rides.
