This is a situation where chlorine can become essential. Chlorine bleach (Clorox), swimming pool chlorine, etc. It can save your life by preventing spread of water-borne disease.
No time to read everything but FEMA is here and helicopters are ferrying people from NO to LSU. Tent city going up on the track field. Families living in dorms with their kids, nowhere to put them. LSU and TUlane medical school are closed, trying to set up a med school in Baton Rouge. FEMA says Baton Rouge is now New Orleans. Tulane wants their students to come to LSU and decision on that is not made. Vet school doing something, don't know what. We are housing 300 people from FEMA and other fed agencies.
Everyone looks sad here.
Someone said that you cannot use swimming pool chlorine for cleaning drinking water because it has other chemicals in it.
We have a swimming pool, so the plan is to use that water for toilets and such. Not as drinking water.
