				<div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><a href="http://hcgp.org/mourn_first_then_organize" target="_blank">This</a> is what I did between calls at the Blackboard help desk this afternoon. It has been quite some time since I last posted a blog entry on hcgp.org, and I took too long getting around to putting up something Harvey-related. But then, so has the rest of the party.<br /><br />Everybody and his proverbial dog has posted something about our recent unwelcome parade-pisser-onner Harvey, on magnillions of websites and social media pages. The Harris County Green Party's Steering Committee hasn't even posted an <em>Ooh, Look! Climate Change in Action!</em> piece. Some of them have been rather busy dealing with the after-effects of two feet of standing water in their living rooms.<br /><br />As HCGP has no designated blogmeister, I took on the task and presumed to speak for the party organization. Having known these folks for 17 years or more, I feel comfortable in presuming, even though I no longer attend regular meetings.<br /><br />&#8203;I hope you enjoy it and are sufficiently inspired to click some of the many links in it.<br /><br />*****<br />&#8203;<br /><strong>UPDATE:</strong>&nbsp;As sustainability wonk Jay Crossley so eloquently put it on Facebook,&nbsp;<em><a href="https://www.dallasnews.com/news/harvey/2017/09/05/houston-grew-officials-ignored-lifetime-chance-spare-thousands-flooding" target="_blank">Wow. Just wow.</a></em>&nbsp;(From the Dallas Morning News, so you may run into a paywall.)</div>
