Obligatory Katrina related post
Every time I turned on TV news this weekend, it was focused on coverage of Katrina. I really hate all the speculative crap. If the doomsday scenario plays out, it will be a major catastrophe- one of the largest in US history. Even if something less than the doomsday scenario plays out, it will be a major source of misery for the people who live there. There’s nothing remotely amusing about a major hurricane. After growing up in a part of Florida that mostly just saw category 1 storms and tropical storms in my life (Kate in 1985 being the main exception), I learned the fury that is a large, major storm last year. I’d do just about anything to avoid going through that again.
I think it’ll be a few more hours before we know just what’s up in New Orleans. I wish the folks there well. This will be my last post on the topic until we have some concrete information.
