Wally, not from wally-world, has many small "mom & pop" mattress factory customers in that area working day and night right now. Most have no mechanic. I hope to keep their machines running for a while, so they can compete with the big boys.
How long, at 50 a day per factory, will it take to supply mattresses to all that need them right now? ;)
Good Luck iddee, all our best wishes for success go packed in your carry on luggage! Let us know when you get back, be prepared to regale us with tales from you exploits!

Returned home this morning. WOW, what a trip. Met a number of fine people, got one new factory started, assisted three other factories get back into full production, and drove two 16 hour trips without resting, one saturday and one last night. Saw only north of I-10, all south was closed off, but seen enough destruction to know I wouldn't have wanted to be there.
Not much of a report, but I'm so tired I'm just about RUM-DUM.
Welcome back Idee, despite what BB says we did not beat him until the blood ran down into his shoes, even though he may deserve it. News is saying Baton Rouge is the new capital of LA.
Any good Cajun food?
Those 16 hr trips are killers!
