Back Home...Damn it's a long way to drive to Northern Arkansas. Feeling a little guilty about trying to squeeze in a little vacation but I promise I didn't know Katrina was "The One". You know "The One" that we have known for years was going to hit New Orleans or at least close enough to breach a levee and turn the city into a freaking lake. You know "The One" that we should have had a plan in place to deal with.
While I am not a specialist in disaster management I have read a few books in which disasters happened which I guess makes me more qualified that Mr. Brown. The first rule of planning for a disaster is to assume that the worst will happen and plan, to the limits of your resources, for that event. If the worst doesn't happen you have wasted nothing because Murphy and his law(s) are still in effect and sooner or later the shit will hit the fan.
We have witnessed the epitome of synergy when it comes to Katrina and the Bush administration's response.
What happens when an irrestible force meets an unbelieveable incompetence?
