I learned early this morning (somewhere around the 6:10 a.m. range) that the water system that keeps New Orleans from flooding broke either last night or earlier today, so this means that my statement is sort of negated. That's not to say that Mobile isn't in a lot of trouble, but New Orleans has more trouble than I thought it did.

Now going back to the earlier statements about going there, I could probably drive there, but I think local people should solve local problems. The reason I can speak of this with some experience is because I've lived in Florida all my life and when Andrew came our way, I had to endure similar conditions that the people in New Orleans went through. I'll let them deal with their problems, and I'll deal with mine.
