The people in lower Manhattan are in pretty much the same situation, and there are many more of them. They too have no electricity, no water, no heat and no cell phone service.
What, the ObamaPhones are out of service?
True. But they can walk uptown and have dinner. Granted it's a mile or two. Haven't seen any apartment buildings toppled in Lower Manhattan either.
No cell phones?
While I understand cell phones can sometimes make life easier, I can’t help but think if these people had spent ONE TENTH AS MUCH on some stand-by supplies over the years as they spent on cell phones, for most people, this would not be anywheres near as bad...
It’s now 3 days after the storm
By the 4th day after Katrina, Bush’s administration had marshalled the rescue of over 20,000 people from flooded enighborhhods to the SuperDome, and then witin 3 days after that, the evacuation of almost 40,000 people from New Orleans
