You can't get good gumbo in yankeeland, MQ, not to mention lagniappe, so of course New Orleans will get rebuilt. Somebody needs to introduce the locals to the concept of "stilts", however, seeing as how Lake Ponchartrain will still be higher than the city. And maybe they can just take this opportunity to turn the place into the American Venice, with pirogues instead of cars.

New Orleans isn't right next to the Gulf, so I doubt that a tsunami is much of a threat. But there's always plenty more hurricanes to deal with.
