And the F-4 Tornado that destoyed a section of my neighboring town last summer? Just a week before Katrina hit? We're not getting a dime for the 43 million in damage that tornado caused. Our state government is working on building a fund for these types of natural disasters, though I'm not really for that, either.

Exactly. Every year I watch as billions of federal dollars are poured into coastal areas to rebuild houses destroyed by hurricanes, rebuilt by owners that KNOW that the next hurricane will result in the same destruction. Yet those of us in the mid-west are on our own when a tornado randomly wipes your home off the map......I'm sorry for Louisiana, but I have read for years about the consequences of a major hurricane on New Orleans....my pity level is low.
