3. Whoa. I think I must have a really poor imagination because
I'm just now realizing what a disaster this is. Poor people. I can't imagine being in their situation.

8. I agree - "inconceivable!"
No amount of imagery will give a full sense of the experience.

(It seems particularly weird when you see places that you've been, wholly altered by the flooding.)

4. I hope this man and his horse will be OK.


I wonder what happened to all of the horses at the Fairgrounds racetrack?

5. Mind-boggling
this is like the Xmas Tsunami - it's just too large to comprehend.

6. Among those pics is one of a tattered US flag...
As I recall, there are very few places in this country that are supposed to fly the flag in all kinds of weather and at all times of day.

I don't imagine the Hyatt New Orleans is among them.

I thought you could.
