If haven’t heard about Katrina by now…I’m sorry to tell you that your medication is wearing off.
And of course they’ve got around 9,000 people in the Superdome in New Orleans. From the beginning I thought this was a bad idea. I realize that the city is in deep water (pun intended) and had to use what was available. But of all the things that could go wrong with a building that size - to be in it in a hurricane is just not something I think I’d risk.
Fears justified. This is only going to get worse.

Hmmm… well, it could just be the old saying that there is safety in numbers. Yet, there is something to be said about being in a large, open-space building versus the confines of one’s home dwelling alone. Think about it, in a car accident, would you rather be in a compact car, or a bus? Me, personally, I would rather have the extra padding that a few other bodies provide… HAHAHA! But seriously, I’d be huddled up, thinking, that the chances of survival is greater when in the company of others than not. Faulty logic as that may be, it might be a comfort to others, and that is what matters in times of disaster. Yes?

True dat… this would be natural selection at its finest… no offense to anyone who’s sensitive on that, but you don’t hide in an outhouse to escape a forest fire…
