6. The lady asking for donations just gave an estimate of the costs

During an interlude, they asked for monetary support. She said the current estimate is $26 billion for insured losses and about twice that (ie. $52 billion) in uninsured losses. That doesn't begin to add in the costs to the federal government. This is probably going to exceed $100 billion when all is said and done.

7. Why do we have to have music to get people to help?

Why do people feel they have to get something out if it beyond the satisfaction of doing something to assist someone else?
