I never thought in this day and age, with all of our technology that such a death toll from a hurricane was possible in this country. It staggers the mind. Where did it all go so wrong?

here is the nhc track nearly 3 days before landfall showing a landfall in eastern la/western ms....any blame that the "focus" wasnt on mississippi is ridiculous.

All the technology and accurate predictions in the world are still not enough to convince some folks to head for the hills.

I saw a Bay St. Louis survivor's story last night and she stayed because her historic home had made it through Camille. She spent the three hours clinging to a tree with four others and miraculously, they all survived. Her house is gone, though.
