What will N.O. be like 6 months ?
I think a lot of the shops around there will cease to exist and I doubt many new shops will be investing in New Orleans. That place will become a ghetto. New Orleans will lose a lot of money because they relied on tourism which will no longer exist like it used to.

Re: What will N.O. be like 6 months ?
It may take a bit longer than six months, but I think it will bounce back OK. I mean, the thing New Orleans has always had wasn't great scenery or climate or anything, it was the ambiance and feel of the city. In a few years this will be restored and I think it will do just fine.

Re: What will N.O. be like 6 months ?
I don't see it bouncing back. I'm wondering where America is getting the money for all this. Where are they going to find 30 billion ? Will we be paying 50 % taxes in the next 10 years ? If so, they will come down hard on online poker for money.

I feel even worse saying that it might get better as many from the ghetto there might not come back and rebuild, while those who prospered there are more likely to come back.

Re: What will N.O. be like 6 months ?
I only hope that those in charge of rebuilding consider how damaging having those levies are to the Mississippi delta and how they are affecting flood plans, and wetlands down there. Part of the problem they have down there is that there is no other place for the water to go other than that lake. The wetlands down there have been disappearing rapidly, and those wetlands acted like a sponge [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img] for all that excess water.

Re: What will N.O. be like 6 months ?
If they don't have the levies, can they even have a city there?
