I think the SD was a last-minute choice when they realized that the storm was actually going to hit.

Not true, the Superdome was always the planned place of refuge. It worked during the hurricane.

The SD did hold up during the hurricane - but if they had planned on it in advance, why wasn't it stocked? Even if people had only been there a couple of days (normal in a hurricane without flooding), they would have needed water and food and lots of Porta-Potties.

The judge who is running things in Houston was asked today how they had been able to get things set up so quickly, and he said "we had a plan." Obviously, NO didn't.
