RummyChick, you made your point several times - every single person I have talked to who lost everything (and a tad less) in Mississippi has, indeed, expressed gratitude they are not experiencing the nightmare in NOLA.

However, to summarily write-off the complete and utter devastation that occurred to residents of Mississippi and Alabama is tunnel vision, and frankly, an insult.

[Knitting A Conundrum]

I lost everything once in a fire. If you have never been in a situation where you only have the clothes on your back and no place to go, it is a good thing not to minimize the plight. There are towns on the gulf coast that were almost obliterated by the water. I have family members who now only own what goods they stuffed in their cars before they evacuated.

Everybody who lost is suffering hell. I feel for all of them, in NO and out.

Once AGAIN, you INTERJECTING YOUR OWN ASSUMPTIONS INTO MY POST. Who said anything about writing off the devastation. You just made my point. Those people in MS SHOULD THANK GOD THEY ARE NOT IN NO. My sentence was very simple. It astounding the lengths you people want to go to to interject something else into it.


Once again, the people crying over their lost possessions in MS should THANK GOD they are not in NO.

Just like, I THANK GOD I AM NOT IN MS.
