The Loss of NOLA through the eyes of Anne Rice.

The outpouring began after the horrendous failure of FEMA and state and local government. Anne has a right and a reason to be bitter, and I am too. I'm not even a resident of NO, but I recognise it's importance and place in our history books and culture. As I stated before, NO will be fine, but only because the citizens of this country will make it so. No offense, Jazz, but had this happened to Portland or Vantucky, I never would have responded to a local citizens editorial with an "Oh, please". You're not there, you're not from there, and this isn't personal for you.
