[ Dan's had the chance to settle in a little and wander around the Barge a bit, at least so far as to check out the gym on his floor and the kitchen. He's got a few appointments, apparently, that he's got to make, but he'll throw out a broadcast while he's got some free time.

He's in his room, and one can see a wide collection of books on a shelf just off to the side of the camera, brass bookends shaped like watchful owls peering off into the distance. ]

Hey out there. For those of you that didn't see me come in, my name's Daniel Dreiberg - Dan, if you want.

Anyway, I've heard about the uh... recent 'flood', and I understand a good many of you have been reduced to a size that makes getting around kind of a hassle.

I'm sure there have been plenty of people out there already offering, but I'm putting myself out there too. If you need a little help while this is going on, I've got a little time to spare and a Barge to keep familiarizing myself with.

So um. If you need a hand, or a taxi [ A quick little grin, self-depreciative humor and good intentions. ] I'd be happy to help you out, just let me know when, where, and what.

No charge or anything, of course.

Well, that it... Hang in there.
