"To: jeffers

They need to be rolling in trucks and busses to get the SuperDome folks out.

Set up tent cities in Memphis, Houston, Little Rock, etc and start bussing them out. They don't have homes to go back to, the city can't feed or clothe them. Once the evacuees are in an undamaged area, they
can get aid and hopefully contact friends or relatives for longer term shelter.

One more day of this dithering and the President will have to step in and put someone in charge of the entire relief effort. I expect real martial law or some FEMA approximation by Thursday."

The Dome is waist deep in water now, and forecast to be twice that by morning.

Helos and boats. If you have another idea post it, because the capacity is not there, not with everything else that's going on.

Opportunities, perhaps critical windows, missed while they sat and fiddled in the leadership seats.

Are there trucks and other ground vehicles that can actually GET to the dome? I doubt it.
