I saw the pictures on TV like everybody else of the disaster zone which is the New Orleans/Gulf Coast area. I hope that none of the oil pipelines have ruptured which would cause pollutin adding to an already chaotic situation. This rumour of airport closures due to lack of Gas is really an unforseen side affect of this Hurricane which will do nothing to assist the reconstruction of that vast area which has been destroyed.

On another note were there many A/C's in New Orleans airport when the storm hit or did they get them out beforehand? Maybe some of our American Cousins will be able to shed some light on this
