FEMA orders 25,000 body bags for Louisiana (New York times 9/8/05) |

some other articles say "Louisiana authorities" generically, but this NY Times article specifies that it is FEMA that is gathering 25,000 body bags. < http://www.nytimes.com/2005/09/08/national/nationalspecial/08storm.html>

I sense this story is slowly seeping below the horizon. Will the media keep with it? Will they allow themselves to be excluded from the area? Will BushCo succeed in hiding NO's dead as successfully as they've hidden the dead in Iraq?
