Ditto that for Brian and all the folks down there. It's just not New Orleans. I left a Hot Springs, AR golf weekend Monday late afternoon just as Gustav was arriving. My folks took 16.5 inches of rain in ~30 hours, lost trees, power, had water over their seawall and well up in their yard, lost part of their dock, etc. A lot of folks in Arkansas are still without power and many of their power folks were sent to Louisiana in advance of Gustav. It'll be a while for until things get back to normal. I'm praying the triumvirate lining up on the East coast doesn't cause too much carnage.
