HAHAHAHAHAHAH \n\noh my gosh. thats like asking how many grains of sand there are at a beach.\n\nthose trailors are everywhere, in the lawns of homes that were ruined.\n\nin parking lots(all set up in an organized way by FEMA)\n\nI mean in the city of NewOrleans theyre everywhere, and in the suburbs around it they are in front of the homes that were ruined. Like if my house was flooded I have a trailor in the lawn.

They were WARNED that they MUST evacuate.  Busses were running full time to get people out, yet so many refused to leave.  Some were on the news dancing in the streets of the French Quarter as the storm approached.  After the storm, they all ran for the Superdome, and there were not enough supplies for the additional people, so that screwed the people who originally went to be sheltered there.  Something else angers me: The National Guard gets blamed for not responding, but the storm was over Tuesday, and TV cameras broadcast National Guard at the airport on Thursday.  This pretty enlisted female told the reporter that they arrived Wednesday, and were setting up relief.\n\nThen cops are out there looting Wal Mart (caught on video).  It would have been one thing if they were getting food, but, well you know the rest of the story.  \n\nPeople cry for the idiots in New Orleans (no, the ones who evacuated are NOT idiots), while Rita pretty much levelled some towns in Southwest Louisiana.  Places where there were towns were now just a bunch of cement foundations.  One person found their house a few miles away.  Nobody even talks about these people--Mississippi gets more attention.

well, bush did say that he was prepared for katrina.  and i think homeland security or somebody like that knew the levee were gonna break.  bush took a gamble i suppose.  i bet that he must have thought that the storm wouldn't have ravaged New Orleans like that.  i mean, plenty of storms have hit the US but not this severe.

200 miles for a mobile home.\n150 miles for a regular home.\n100 miles for a solidly built regular home.\n75 miles for a home like the one shown in the blog at http://360.yahoo.com/ki_te_moana\nPut this kind of home on pilings if in flood plain, near the river or in the hurricane storm surge area.\nNot at all on barrier islands.\nNo closer than 25 miles to coastal lowlands.\nAt fifty miles, you will still need to board your windows and doors for hurricances, even with this new kind of home.\n\nIf you are living in a mobile home, do not forget Tornado coverage and other threats on your insurance.\n\nThe Mayor will not like me, but I say NO_NO for New Orleans, for all reasons, including the weather and the levees.

The people of New Orleans!! I want to say up front I have nothing to do with that cespool of sucmbags. Save the money, & let the "Chocolate City" turn into Atlantis......\n\n6/27/06 The lawlessness, the disfunction, the looters, killers. Hell now they need the National Guard to protect a city with fewer people than before. The Mayor is useless and the football team sucks. Do I need more?

Let us all remember that we have never had a Natural Disaster of these porportions before.  People not evacuating when they were told to is a big part of the problem.  People will need to go home to New Orleans to rebuild they can not do it from the different states they have landed in.  Many do not plan to return, yet they have left homes behind.  In order to rebuild you have to demolish what is there, without owners being involved it may take some time before the demolition can happen.  Two things should have been learned from this disaster and that is the Government always needs to be ready for something of the porportions that they have never seen.  Also that responsible citizens should have left with the first notice's of evacuation.  You have a City that was built below the level of the sea on the sea and you were waiting for this kind of thing to happen. Experts knew that the dykes and retaining walls would not stand up to more than a category 3 storm and the citizens knew it as well, people just choose not to believe it would actually happen to them, which is natural in these circumstances, but not the best choices to make.  There may have been the most impoverished people in this country living in New Orleans, yet they should have had enough notice to get out and not choose to stay there.  It was the lack of people leaving the area that caused the police and National Guard to have to stay there to try to keep order when those effeorts could have been directed to other places.  There still has to be major decisions as to what the new New Orleans will be.  Is it going to be the city of almost a half a million or will it be a remnant of it's former self.  Until we know what we are rebuilding there can be no blaming the government because it isn't done.  Yes we had poor government response, but we also had poor cooperation from the citizens at the sametime.  The government will always bear the brunt of the blame for this, however it should be up to the citizens of New Orleans where we go from here and not the rest of the country.\n\nAs some things never change Mardi Gras is going on as usual, if you want to help the economy of their city this would be the time to go there and help their economy.

I'm not sure either, but I can tell you that there is no 17th street anywhere in New Orleans.  In the west end neighborhood, there are many numbered streets that are perpendicular to the 17th street canal and begin at the canal.  There is a 16th street & an 18th street, but no 17th street - weird, huh?

I think some are open, but it would depend on what area you are wanting to live in.  The most seriously flooded areas are still a HUGE mess and over 1000 houses still need to be checked for human remains before they can be bulldozed.  It's UNREAL...still looks like the set for a scary movie for miles and miles in some areas.\nHope all's well in Texas.  The volunteers helping in N.O. and the surrounding area are doing a fabulous job and working their tails off.  Sadly, the government still has their collective head up their butt.\nYou may be able to find more info here:\nhttp://www.wdsu.com/index.html
