New Orleans: diagrams of "The Bowl." (warning: large files)

[tedoll78]

The Times Picayune does some truly impressive reporting when it comes to hurricane coverage. If you have loved ones still in New Orleans, tell 'em to get going NOW!

1. OK - that is comprehensive as hell!

And flat-out scary.

Good luck New Orleans!

2. My daughter is a Junior....................

at Tulane U. I researched this very thing in her Freshman year. We had to evacuate her twice that year, this is the first time since then. She's on her way to Houston (ugh, I know, but it's safe and one of her roomies lives there) at this moment.

With the petro-chemical industry, snakes, gators and Gawd knows what else floating around in that big soup bowl, her education at Tulane may be coming to a screeching halt.
