Gulf Coast Homeowners' Mortgages Come Due
OCEAN SPRINGS, Miss. (AP) - Like many homeowners around here, Janet Kisling owes a pile of debt on little more than a pile of debris. She has a $1,000-a-month mortgage on a home that is uninhabitable. For her and others along the Gulf Coast, December brings a cruel cut-off: It marks the end of an informal 90-day grace period that many lenders offered to Hurricane Katrina victims that let them put their mortgage payments on hold.
TENSION: Taking a pound of flesh
GRAVITY: Rubble

I think the gov't needs to help these people out some more.
