IDIOTS!!! If DC or NY got hit again they would be the first ones with their hands out saying the rest of the country has to help them rebuild. I would argue that those living in NY and DC are at much greater risk for disaster than NOLA

Who are the "THEY" that you are talking about?

The "flotel" has dislodged from the bridge and is being stabilized by tugs. Some good news.

"I was watching the group report and they said something to the effect they were reconsidering dropping the sandbags and considering filling shipping containers with sand or fill and dropping them instead..."

Delay, delay, delay.

The NG needs to be in there taking charge of this situation, restoring order and evacuating people.

And you don't think that they are trying to do that? However the first priority is rescue, as it should be.

To: Cboldt; nuclady I am so sorry! I thought this was addressed to poster Wolfie. 1,019 posted on 08/30/2005 4:04:51 PM PDT by Admin Moderator

Now what is not to love about this place? A Mod shows up to apologize. May be unprecedented,

It is true - the hard time bring out the best in good people.

Well stated. Logistics. Dingy's, boats, ships, and helicopters need fuel/maintenance. This takes time. Those that are first responding (GO USCG!) are doing the best that they can with what they have.

I understand the frustration, but things appear from the available photos to be a real mess. Important bridges are out all over and even IF they were able to plug the breaches in the dikes, it could be months before things could be pumped out. USCG is at its best.

"At some point in the future I can envision a scenario where we import 100% of our oil products, including gasoline."

I see no reason whatever why we should have to.
