I hear things are uglier than first thought.  It seems that some levies broke.  Looks like New Orleans will be in a state of disaster for a while.  I heard on Air America that the levee breaks were due to poor upkeep by the Corp of Engineers, which was due to some major cutbacks by the administration so that they fund the war in Iraq.  Ineed some criticism was leveled at them at the time citing exactly the kind of possibility that Katrina wrought.  I heard that Bush said he was going to call out the National Guard to keep order.  Kind of a strange statement since they are all in Iraq.  This guy and his buddies are completely out of touch with reality.  Maybe I am too since I didn't really check on any of this before blowing my mouth off here, so maybe somebody can check up on how right I am.  Anyway, in the mean time I haven't heard a whisp out of localroger.  If anybody hears anything about him, I hope that you will forward something to the virus list #virus channel.  A few other Virians have been concerned as well.
