30. See, this is exactly what I meant when I wondered about all the empty

pickup trucks fleeing the city before the hurricane. EXACTLY.

One person here, an self appointed expert on the city and what was going on down there, talking about all the famous people she knew down there kept saying that 'everybody who wants to get out can/will get out', it's a family city, blah, blah, blah. And others here were blaming these people as well. Saying that they 'chose' to stay.

Well folks, how does it make you feel now? Are you so sure that everybody who stayed did so because they were 'afraid of looters' (the most common reason given)?

There are days when I seriously wonder about this place and some of the people who post here. This just makes me cry.
