I don't understand something about the Convention Center situation. It is only about 10-15 blocks from the Superdome. Why aren't the Convention Center people going to the Superdome to get on the buses? I understand they don't have much information about what is going on, but I'm sure they know there are buses taking people out of the city and that they're leaving from the Superdome.

Or, since the entire world knows there are 20K people at the Convention Center, why isn't there one single person of authority there giving them information. With no radios, phones, etc., how else will any of them find out what's up?

I watched reporters go all over NO today, talking with people who had no food/water/sanitation but where are FEMA, police, NG, etc?

Your link was already posted yesterday, but worthwhile just the same:

Interesting live blog from NO

The lack of an effective federal response after this amount of time is truly disgraceful.

"Appearing on ABC's "Good Morning America," the FEMA director said he "never thought I'd see" the lawlessness that has overtaken the city and interrupted emergency relief efforts. "It's heartbreaking and very, very frustrating to me from a broad operational perspective," he said."

OK, if FEMA was caught with their pants down, that's fine. However, they should have the wherewithal to get the National Guard down to maintain the peace. What NO really needs is a Communist militia from the former USSR or Cuba! If anyone can execute martial law, the Communists can.
