had pictures of new orleans in water would be up to the tops of windows in homes. it was awful. it's a terrible, terrible disaster. but very different from ours because you would look, there wasn't one shingle off a roof in the pictures. it was all done by rising water flood that resulted from when the levees first were topped and then when they gave way. so very different from what we win through, and not minimizing, it's awful. but we hat born the brunt of the hurricane and when i saw it tuesday morning after the storm on monday from a helicopter, it looked as if a nuclear weapon had gone off in the sound off the coast. as in the hand of god has wiped away the coast, some places for blocks, some places for miles. the storm surge crossed i-10, numerous times. sometimes six or eight miles inland. you should know, a storm surge is not a tidal wave. at a tsunami. in a storm summer the water rises for hours, goes back down for hours so pushes in and then pulls back out. and then each direction is very damaging, but in this case, more damaging than usual because i woul
