The woman cutting my hair got caught in heavy traffic comming from Houston and the other two customers were evacuees from Lousiana. One customer had just received a call that a neighbor's barn had been destroyed and she was worried about her horse. They drove several hundred miles with 5 dogs in the car.

I've been watching online since I saw it on the site yesterday. The coverage is far superior to the Cables. Thanks for the link to the local coverage.

It was 2 different stories. The local one was the real story. The national one was a reality show. This was the same during and after Katrina. It was 2 different stories.
