The sad thing about it is that N.O. had a good culture down there... it was a reknown city with a unique style and feel and all the traces of that city is gone, even with it it's own people... it's just amazing...

I think the whole thing about they should have gotten out because they know the city is under sea level... i wonder if the people in the netherlands and venice would leave in the complete risk that something would happen, i'm sure there would be people who'd stay. of course, they don't live with the risks of hurricanes)... none-the-less, i don't think it's a good rationale that they had advanced warning, in historical aspect people are stubborn especially about their homes. Besides, most of the people in this hurricane had already people been through a big hurricane before, no one was expecting this...
