Hello there, a bright light in a foggy room. This is obviously a major failure to plan on a LOCAL level folks. Before this storm came in every politician in town was saying how they had been waiting and preparing for this storm for all of their lives. Can anyone identify a single action that was planned? The idea of using the Superdome came at the very last minute. Is there anyone down there who didnt know that this was coming? You cant live below sea level by the sea. And to make matters worse the problem has only been compounded over time by continuing to raise the levees and straighten the river and drain the wetlands. Disaster planning and response begins on the local level, the plan in New Orleans was apparently RUN!!
