17. I was looking for facts, not 3 year old estimates.

"DANIEL ZWERDLING: I'm trying to picture tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of people trapped in these traffic jams as the hurricane is hitting the City and the water level is starting to rise. What would happen to them?

JOE SUHAYDA: They would be washed away and there would be really no way for the help, there is public help emergency services people to get to them to help them."

Perhaps they are right, and I appreciate your efforts, but right now I want to hear facts.

11. Here is a link

DANIEL ZWERDLING: And here's perhaps the most troubling question of all: if a huge hurricane does hit New Orleans, how many people will die?

JAY COMBE: I think of a terrible disaster. I think of 100,000, and that's just my guess. I think that there's a terrible lack of perception. The last serious hurricane we had here was in 1965. That's close to 40 years ago.

13. Saturday: day 6 of the Atrocity - still no estimate of the death toll.

:wtf:


By the way, when the towers fell down in NYC the nation came to a halt. If unofficial guesses are anywhere near the total, the death toll from this disaster may be anywhere from 3-10x that of 9/11. Where is the outrage? Where are the flags? Where are the ribbons? Where are the stupid songs on the capital steps? What? Its only poor black people?

14. Where are the cancelled sporting events?

It's going to be way more than it needed to be.
