Coast Guard number...

Just received in my work email - posting here in case anyone has heard from trapped friends relatives on the Gulf Coast -

State EWES has learned that trapped victims on the Gulf Coast are calling family, friends, loved-ones, or anyone they can get a call out to in California asking for someone to rescue them. These requests need to go immediately to the US Coast Guard's Rescue Line at 800-323-7233 and immediate assistance will be sent.

Please distribute this information as widely as possible.

Thank you.

The above phone number was changed within the last hour to "Visit the US Coast Guard website to fill out a Missing/Stranded Persons Request." (Link on the OES website doesn't work, this is the correct one).
