Back Best of luck to you Mike.
I'm born and raised in New Orleans and my house was under 11'6" of water.
Last time I checked online there was still 2'6" in the house. It could be lower by now but that water has been in there for over 3 weeks now. I've lost everything, including a copy of your book. Eovia has been very helpful to me under these circumstances and I thank them for it.
Temporarily my kids and I are in Schertz, TX in northeast San Antonio. I have family and friends here. Looks like they will be bulldozing our neighborhood. We were only 4 blocks from the 17th St canal levee break in the northwest corner of New Orleans. Most of the water that headed downtown had to pass through our neighborhood. Nav to http://maps.google.com/ and paste 407 37th St, New Orleans, LA. Our house is just to the left of the marker. Press the red Katrina button and you can see just how close we were.
I also lost a car that was left behind.
You never think it can happen to you. Be very careful of Rita. I can tell you from recent experience that hurricanes are something to be taken seriously.
Fortunately for me I belong to an online racing league and those guys have been very generous to my family. That's something I will never forget. One of the things I use Carrara for is rendering my paint jobs that I do for the guys in the league. I guess it paid off when I needed it most.
Good luck to you and everyone in Rita's path.
Stay safe,
Bob 'Flash' Laprime

Hello,
This is Mike de la Flor, I am the primary author of the new Carrara book. I am also in Houston, Texas, which is just east of where Hurricane Rita will make landfall as a catagory 5 storm.
Consequently, I have shut my down offices and studio and expect to have no power for at least a week or longer.
Talk to you guys when life returns to normal.
Mike
