the excerpt that really shocks is this:

As the whirling maelstrom approached the coast, more than a million 
people evacuated to higher ground. Some 200,000 remained, however—
the car-less, the homeless, the aged and infirm, and those die-hard 
New Orleanians who look for any excuse to throw a party. 
 
The storm hit Breton Sound with the fury of a nuclear warhead, 
pushing a deadly storm surge into Lake Pontchartrain. The water 
crept to the top of the massive berm that holds back the lake and 
then spilled over. Nearly 80 percent of New Orleans lies below sea 
level—more than eight feet below in places—so the water poured in. A 
liquid brown wall washed over the brick ranch homes of Gentilly, 
over the clapboard houses of the Ninth Ward, over the white-columned 
porches of the Garden District, until it raced through the bars and 
strip joints on Bourbon Street like the pale rider of the 
Apocalypse. As it reached 25 feet (eight meters) over parts of the 
city, people climbed onto roofs to escape it. 
 
Thousands drowned in the murky brew that was soon contaminated by 
sewage and industrial waste. Thousands more who survived the flood 
later perished from dehydration and disease as they waited to be 
rescued. It took two months to pump the city dry, and by then the 
Big Easy was buried under a blanket of putrid sediment, a million 
people were homeless, and 50,000 were dead. It was the worst natural 
disaster in the history of the United States. 
 
When did this calamity happen? It hasn't—yet. But the doomsday 
scenario is not far-fetched. 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. Even the Red 
Cross no longer opens hurricane shelters in the city, claiming the 
risk to its workers is too great.
 
END QUOTE

I understand that 4 paras is the max one should excerpt, but read 
the whole article. While a lot of scientific knowledge went into 
the author's work, I can't help wondering if the specificity shows 
remote viewing precognition. Like the novel about the Titan sinking 
that came out years before the Titanic, unconscious to the author of 
course.

This is a defining moment in national history. I won't argue with 
admirers of the Bush administration, because at this point they are 
a negligable proportion of the population.  

Daniel, I suggest you write another letter telling Senator McCain 
that feeding cake to the smirking chimp while he was shirking his 
most grave duties was a misservice to the nation. The image will 
stick to him as it does to Bush. The image of Condi Rice grinning 
in a designer gown coming out of a Broadway musical comedy, while 
the world was trying to send us help and being put off, will stick 
to her.  

Signing off for the weekend,

Paul
