I never thought I'd say this, but I'm seriously beginning to wonder if many folks will go back to NOLA. There is still nothing to go back to. No water or electricity at this point. The longer this goes, isn't it more likely that people will just apply for all the insurance/relief money they can qualify for, and start over wherever they are at? I don't know that I would go back to a swamp that floods everytime it rains, just to live a hard life of being either unemployed or marginally employed for a couple of years while the city is "rebuilt".

NOLA ain't gonna be NOLA again for a very, very long time methinks.
