Well if you do the math, if approx 100,000 did not evacuate, there are about 13,000 in the SD, after about 3000 have been rescued off rooftops, maybe 10,000 are roaming loose, where are the rest of them?

I dread the answer to that question.

I didn't want to bring that up. But, you are right. I think the number who did not leave was even higher than 100,000. Initially, 40,000 homes were under water. We also have no reports from Plaquemines and we've heard St Bernard was "gone." With the potential for loss of life in MS this is not looking good.

Some of them seem to be looting, apparently with no problems whatsoever!
