People are very resistant to evacuation orders and don't seem to value their lives as much as their possessions, they fear looters while they're away, or just the expense and inconvenience of leaving town for higher ground.

Not being an alarmist or crying wolf and certainly NOT relishing the prospect of seeing 500 or 5,000 or 50,000 souls swept away. I fear the loss of many more than on 9/11 plus this damn war + ???. I fly the storm flags upside down because of what I see as a very real chance of an horrific disaster.

is there ANYTHING that could cause Katrina to weaken? NOT Yet~danielw

Just saw the LIVE shot of I-10 leaving N.O. on the Weather Channel...

Good bye, New Orleans. Edit: If things do not change for the positive and this thing does what I think it will do.... will New Orleans be rebuilt? It could take a LONG time to pump the water out.
