Re: Category 5 Hurricane heading for New Orleans

I'm not referring to people deaths, i'm referring to property damage. WTC was what over 3500 killed, Katrina at around 68 so far. I don't know what the going price on a couple of new trade centers but can it be over 40 billion if you include flood damages? That's NOT even to mention the economic impact! I can remember after 9-11 and living in Mpls, the cost of fuel dropped to .96 cents/ gallon. Look up in the upper left corner of this thread at the gas price, went from 2.79 to 2.96 in 2 days. You think it will stop there? Hell No. The impact of this doesn't just impact LA, Miss, it affects the entire U.S. That to me is also damage.
