Point taken and I apologize. Yours was about the 3rd post I saw either questioning or (or flat out contesting) MFH veracity and I think I had enough when I saw yours.

Again I'm sorry. This seems to confirm what I was fearing and I have not heard from every one of my NOLA coworkers yet. ANd I have not yet known MFH to lie about anything.

I can see people stubbornly holding onto an "it can't happen here" viewpoint, because deaths in the thousands from this storm are horrible to contemplate. But I would urge everyone to go back to MFH's original post. It is not "hysterical" as some have claimed, nor is it in any way an unlikely scenario. For example, Fox News recently reported Biloxi is "destroyed" and "littered with bodies." The scenario presented by MFH's paramedic friend would seem to fit that sort of description. Those who called this storm a "monster" had it right on the money.

No problem. I just got up and noticed the post was written at about
11:00pm, so I was sure this information would be reported on Fox this morning. When I didn't see anything, I asked the question because I wondered if it was really true. The more I listen to the news on Fox this morning the more I realize that the death toll could very well (and most likely will) go over 1000, or more. Anyway, thanks for the apology--all is forgotten.
