Dear sis,
Wow! How about the dr fees! We had the same thing here for a while. They are now controlled by the Mayor and Council. Lots of complaints by the drs, but way too many by the public. Dr. Karkus, the one I work for, sat a fair system from the beginning, but others were gouging. By the way, I found out they've got you a plot next to ours at the garden.
Now for the interesting news -- Harry took a field trip with a group of student engineers from IU. They went west to the Mississippi lakes then down to the gulf. He was gone for about 10 days. They went to Memphis. He said there's a lot of damage. They were supposed to go on down to Winona in Mississippi, but they've blocked off the area, said the ground was too unstable. He did bring back a new map showing what the country looks like from space. If you've got a good road atlas, US 70 marks the north line for the most part, Interstate 65 for the east, and highway 83 to the west -- that whole area is now underwater. Looks like Mexico got hit bad too. He also found out the Panama Canal is gone and the continents are now separated by about 20 miles.
Gotta stop for now. Will send more info later. Now it's off to community meeting.
Love Sal

Dear Sal
That's a lot of interesting stuff. Did you hear about Hawaii? Rumor has two of the islands now connection and they each have gotten bigger. I also heard part of India is gone as well. I find all of this fascinating. Of course, it's not happening to us. It would be different if it happened to us personally.
We got our gas ration approved. Now, we start planning. Bert says we can ship most of our stuff on the train. It will be cheaper and save on the gas. Mama and the kids can take it as well. Their fares are cheap and it would save them the long trip. The train is a little quicker. We have to do what we can to save gas. Anyway, it's a short letter. Will write more very soon.
Love ya
