A man and his baby cries out over the body of an old man who died in the chair where he sits on the neutral ground of Convention Boulevard as refugees crowd into the Earnest Morial Convention Center

Say a prayer for that man's soul

My wife just called from the Houston area hospital where she works. They just received a patient from New Orleans who was rescued from a rooftop.

He said that other neighbors were throwing children into the water whenever a boat passed in the hope that it would force the boat to stop.

But the boats didn't stop and the kids drowned.

This is at least double hearsay, but I thought I'd pass it along.
