I guess you are unable to think it through at all, so I'll note the obvious. In BR, you only have to shelter them inside for the day before and duration of the storm. 2 days. After that they can be moved to temporary tent cities. I take it that you are unaware that such ARE planned for some of the expected refugees that won't be able to return to their homes(or perhaps just remaining land) in New Orleans for weeks if the storm surge fills the bowl. Was discussed earlier this evening.
But hell, that's all a bit difficult and inconvenient, and I'm sure you'll now gripe that they don't have adequate mental relief and color TV's, so just let 'em drown.

You said it SO much better than I !!
Could you share with me a city that does have a plan like this in place?
