No apologies necessary - I didn't read close enough - thanks for sharing their story - it's one of those we don't hear in the MSM - and one of the reasons I love The Free Republic.

here's what I don't understand...I thought all communication was "down".....but here this lady uses some phone, probably her cell.....

the only thing I can think of why the Red Cross and others were not allowed in is because they expected another levee tofail and the city would be even more under water.......

otherwise, there is no explanation.....
