Editor's Comment:	In today's Bastrop Advertiser (12-17-2011) there is a story about the Bastrop Co. Relief Center in the shopping center off Childers Drive next to Walmart (east side) that is still distributing supplies to fire victims.

	10/18/2011
Subject:	Update
Question:	When do you update this Question/Comment page? I have asked a lot of questions and no answers posted. Then when I want to atleast keep up with other people's comments or questions...seems like I have to wait until inconsistent gaps of days/weeks. - PB
Location:	Red Rock , Tx Bastrop
Editor's Comment:	Updates are posted when answers can be confirmed for the questions. Comments are usually put on sooner. The problems are that many rumors are received that cannot be confirmed immediately. Over the years, we get many statements about someone hearing about a new store coming, etc. In about 75% of the time, they are only rumors. So we usually only verify them when they are officially announced or permitting has begun for their buildings.We are sorry that some of your questions were not answered, but I have gone back looking to see if any were found in the to answer list, but I could not find any.It is possible that someone else had asked the same question. Hope this is helpful.
