hurricane housing
Rick has an idea, to help with rebuilding after the hurricane:
Genesis can create panelized kits which are complete light steel buildings delivered to building sites for assembly. Our investment centers around the amazing (at least to me) technology which makes all this possible. The facility where we crank out the buildings is, in effect, our lab and revenue to continue building out the systems which we believe are key to a great investment.
What all that means is we have a facility that can turn out homes, elder care facilities, condo projects, apartment buildings, churches, strip malls, etc, that are rated to withstand 160mph wind, in effect a Cat 4 hurricane. They are cost comparable to wood, will go up fast and will stay up.
In light of all the towns that are not in the press spotlight and seeing relief trucks flying by, we thought it would be a great idea to try and go in to help rebuild some homes. Donate some homes, in kits, that can replace the structures which were destroyed. Maybe homes, maybe a senior care facility, small town heath clinic, etc. The point is that we will donate a bunch of this to try and help.
And he’s asking for our help:

My aunt and uncle live near Picayune, MS (north of Slidell) which got pretty hammered. I’ve been checking out the Slidell damage blog regularly, also Jon Barlow at Barlow Farms (http://www.barlowfarms.com) has blogged about damage north of New Orleans. It’s been hard to get useful info about how things really are up there.
