he said it and some other alarming stuff. Go to www.wwltv.com and click on "Mayor update on city" link. its taped from earlier tonight. Slidell is all underwater, NO is 80%, twin span bridge is gone (this had the news anchors in shock), there is alos a barge leaking gasoline (or some other substance) into the mississppii river.
he also said that 3pumping stations are still not working
Twin Span Bridge? Is this in New Orleans, or is this the causeway across Pontchartrain? I'm not familiar with NO enough to know what bridge is gone, and neither WWLTV nor NOLA.com have anything more than just this up.
I highly recommend that people listen to this interview with the New Orleans mayor while it is still up on the WWL TV site.
