I think right now those folks are much more concerned about getting their kids and their families out of there alive than what will happen to their 69 Z/28's... I hope the forcasters are as wrong as they usually are, and its not as bad as they are currently predicting. Its stuff like this that makes you realize just how unimportant material possessions really are.

They are using the Superdome as a shelter for people that have no way to get out. If there was ever a time for a miracle I think this is one of those times.

"They are using the Superdome as a shelter for people"
And they have to frisk every single soul that walks in,so as to rule out possible terrorist attempts or the like.

Im trying to understand why all those people waited so long to leave...You get plenty of warning, just need to use some sense and get the hell out. I would have left 2-3 days ago..

We have these stupid building codes on the coast here because of hurricanes, Tell me if this makes sense... We have to install what is called Storm Glass which is esentially bullet proof glass to withstand the winds, Now the best part is we have to use egress windows in the bedrooms which is a window a fireman can climb into with a full pack. Problem is he can no longer break the glass to get in so whats the sense. I talked to the idiots who created this code and explained to them that if a Hurricane comes I have a few days to get my family out and to a safe place but if there is an unexpected fire in the middle of the night the firemen cant save us because they cant get into the house...They couldnt give me an answer ..Politicians at their best..idiots..
