From the Editor After The Hurricane

Another industry conference, the Specialty Graphic Imaging Association, also had to be cancelled because of the storm. It had made the ill-fated decision to meet in New Orleans this year.

An hour north of the Crescent City, Baton Rouge has become a crowded place due to massive relocation of evacuees. Louisiana State University offered its grounds as a field hospital, and some LSU Graphic Services employees like Ken Watson volunteered their services. Ken says the highways and supermarkets of his city are quite clogged these days, but he and other in-plant employees are glad they experienced only a few downed trees and power outages due to the storm.
