*nods* you are entitled to that opinion :) for the record, war I think more a man-made disaster then a natural one. I'm just saying that no matter how you look at it, the aftermath wasn't going to be something you can solve neatly within a day or so even if the government was right on the ball with getting supplies, medical assistance and rescue teams into New Orleans. If anything I see it as a sobering reminder that man is still at the mercy of nature and his own folly, no matter politics or wealth.
