Dear Listers:

Recently. I saw postings and news articles about a New Orleans evacuee named Emile Francis who had his minivan and antique sousaphone stolen in Houston.

Houston police later found the minivan, and the sousaphone was still inside!  The thieves had ransacked the van for stuff which could readily be carried off, but the sousaphone was OK.

Regards,
Dave Stoddard
Round Rock, TX

PS: Texas will have its own hurricane stories in a day or two.  Austin is full of coastal residents right now.
