This good news story about a good Samaritan who broke into a school during a snowstorm in Buffalo, NY:

What is not being discussed is how he went to 10 houses offering up to $500 just to sleep on their floor before being turned down. I took a look at the area around the school and was expecting a sparsely populated area:

Nope, it’s densely populated. I’m surprised not more people could help these motorists. I’m surprised the municipality didn’t open up the school in a time of blizzard for those stranded. I realize that the blizzard could have come suddenly, hence there were so many trapped. But somehow I believe there should be better preparedness in time of disaster so that death and injury could be avoided.
