I for one will show no sympathy if New Orleans crumbles again. People need to get a clue and not live in in giant ditches waiting for it to fill with water. I'm completely empathetic to those who lost a lot and went through a lot during Katrina, but come on people, wake up.

 

Storms like Katrina hit New Orleans (and every other major city) once every 50 or so years.  It's better getting hit by a hurricane that you can anticipate a week before hand rather than suffering through snowstorms, forest fires, sudden earthquakes, etc.

And besides, New Orleans just kicks ass, so storms or not more of us would never leave.
