Most of these people will be picked up in 1-2 days max. My point is the US has contingincies for this and help is on it's way. These people may miss 2-3 meals at most.

I think it might take a week to get everyone out of NO. And disease is gonna start kicking in before then.

I truly hope I'm wrong. I really do.

WDSU says they're going to have helicopters lift 3000-lb sandbags and drop them where the breach is in the levee to fix the leak.

They also said there's been a report of a couple of people dead in the dome. I guess that wouldn't surprise me if there are elderly and sick people there.

They also said people have driven up to the dome and gotten out and tried to enter the dome for safety. And how ironic it is that these people had a car, so they could have gotten themselves out of town.
