Merging Two Katrina Threads August 29, 2005 9:16 AM   Subscribe

The two Katrina threads are functionally the same, regardless of their original intent. Can they be merged?

Kinda late.

There's a lot of duplication, it was good on intent but without heavy moderation in the beginning they were destined to be clones of each other. It's too late and somewhat useless at this point.

On the topic of Katrina, someone please explain why this post is worth keeping. Honestly...this is a question that requires the help of the MeFi community? Really...the poster isn't even trying to figure it out on his own. I thought we discouraged that kind of thing.

There are nine threads now, by my count.

And since mefi has never been nor ever will be moderated such a discussion should be kept to one thread, no matter how good the intent.

I'm sorry my post didn't seem worthwhile. I posted a followup, of sorts, on the Hurricane photography thread.

Here.

I'm going to head back over there.
