Somehow the juxtaposition of water-stained pages with spare prose written at the end of believing, and hard-edged graphics tells far more than mere TV images can convey. This media mash-up of sorts is a testament to why the sum of parts is often greater than the whole. One could imagine that supply and air drop distribtion of "space food" in hard-hit disaster areas could ease the suffering of people who are stranded during natural disasters. This NSDL resource from the <i>Cornell Engineering Magazine</i> collection <a href="http://eng-2k-web.engineering.cornell.edu/engrMagazine/magazine.cfm?issue=SUMMER2000&page_number=1&section=feature4" rel="nofollow">"Eat Well and Prosper" by Beth Saulnier</a> explains why Cornell agricultural and biological engineering professor Jean Hunter creates comfort food for the final frontier. Katrina makes the final frontier feel a lot closer than it used to. What a powerful story.
