Let's see. You got trapped in you're stifling hot attic for a day (Mon.) until you were able to claw your way out. Then you sat on your roof for a day (Tues) in the stifling hot sun waiting to be rescued. Then you waded through the water with your cut legs and scratched up hands and tried not to swallow too much contaminated water as you got to the boat. Then you waited a day on the bridge overpass in the hot sun. (Weds.) Now you're at the convention center. If your lucky you've had a little bit of water that someone found to give to you. Not that that will help much against the heat exhaustion and disease that is creeping through your body. And this would be bad for a 20-year old in good shape. And YOU'RE the pessimist? ;) But yeah - how come the news guys seem to be able to get in and out but the freash water and the sick don't?

Yeah, but how many percent of the people we're seeing on TV went through the scenario you described?
