NO mayor just told Larry King that the Superdome will "probably" be safe - it's a damn good thing there are not TVs there

Thing is - they don't really know.

In the end, it could be good for 1 thing: all those folks in 1 place, and identified - so they don't have to go out combing debris in search of corpses.

I'm staying positive, I the engineers must have designed the Dome to hold at 200MPH, but I don't think they ever envisioned a direct Category 5 strike with 190MPH gusts.

Any engineers want to take on the cumulative reaction on the structure if it is a slow moving storm?
