GUEST,Guy Who Thinks BS: more hurricane warnings (105* d) RE: BS: more hurricane warnings 30 Aug 05

Even allowing for the absolutely inevitable media exaggeration, *daylia*s summary looks to be reasonably correct.

This sort of thing is worse than an ordinary earthquake, because emergency vehicles can get through to the site of an earthquake. With 80% of N.O. submerged, only boats and helicopters can bring in food and water. And only boats and helicopters can get people out.

The drinking water and sanitation crises will likely come to a head first. I hope they can be solved.

This really is the worst natural disaster in North American history. It will take a day or two for the facts to sink in.
