More Katrina (Less Angry)

This article which appeared in National Geographic in October of 2004 raises some interesting questions for the 'we couldn't have known this was going to happen' apologists that I pointed out in a previous posting. This quote from the article was particularly striking:

"The Federal Emergency Management Agency lists a hurricane strike on New Orleans as one of the most dire threats to the nation, up there with a large earthquake in California or a terrorist attack on New York City."

I am glad that Colin Powell is out of office and can speak his mind about Katrina and it's aftermath as well.

This is a pretty amazing slide show of the before, during and after of a photographer who was in New Orleans the entire time of the storm.
