I just listened to that news conference by the LA Governor and it is beyond my comprehension that they really didn't, and seemingly still don't have a plan for this scenario.
I agree.
"It Will Turn" seems to have been their plan.
They are not exactly the most inspiring "leaders" I've ever seen.
The governor and the Senator do not, individually or collectively, inspire confidence.
ping my thots xactly!

They do have a plan, on several levels, that is being implemented in the field without the Governor's input. Mostly, their communications are not working and they are on their own until comms come back on-line.
That is part of the well developed plan.
This is a really big disaster and it will take several days to find out just how bad it is. The field personnel are acting under their own direction and are doing so professionally and efficiently.
So... please back off the criticism and send help.

All the big wigs obviously had no real plan for any of this. Shame on them. Almost any bozo could have planned things better.
The real heros here are the ones who are doing all the actual work. Those who are doing the rescues and getting there hands dirty in this to save lifes. The real heros are the small guys who are risking there necks with no concern about political crap.
