RV's for evacuees

Banjo Jones has a post up about an idea Scott Chaffin has:

Scott Chaffin, who writes The Fat Guy blog up in the D-FW area of the Great State of Texas, is wondering if there are any R.V. owners out there who would lend their rig to be used by folks displaced by Hurricane Katrina.

Scott owns an RV park on the Brazos River 90 miles southwest of Dallas.

"Problem is, I ain't gots no RVs. That's where you come in. Being Texans, you probably know some
hayseed (maybe family, maybe not) who owns an RV that will be parked for the next few months as we slip into fall and winter. I'm looking for donations of those idle RVs for temporary housing at my place," he says in an email sent to his blogrollin' buddies.

"I'm also working with a couple of other folks around the nation to pull together a national dealio of this sort. National attention to this very easy and cheap method of semi-permanent housing will be
important in the long run, I think. But, there's no reason not to start here at home, and learn from it," he adds.
