[proud American in Canada]

Okay, I have to log off now, and I don't know if anyone even cares what I have to say, but here goes: Yes, I will pray so hard that no one hurts or dies--human life is precious and worth more than any bricks and mortar.

And, so much history and culture in N.O. that could be lost forever. It would be a tragedy if it were gone.

A a big chunk of U.S. history torn out in a day?

Please. God, let that not happen.

Now, I'll put my kids to bed, while praying that this M************r of a hurricane doesn't destroy New Orleans and kill innocent people.

Amen.
