SO, if we are in this situation for A WEEK, after the big one, the feds damn well have figured out how to drop food and water on people. Exactly. Sit on your pile of rubble and wait for the Feds to drop meal replacements and Evian. You took my comment, about an EARTHQUAKE, and twisted it to pertain to a hurricane. In an earthquake people need to stay home (I believe). Dropping food and water is a basic assumption fema should make. Same with NO people that can't be evacuated like the hospital folks. There is no excuse, NONE, for not having the facility to provide food and water to stationary victims in either tragedy. Your point about more people should have evacuated is also a point well taken. But remember, if LA opens the superdome- they should have been better prepared. And they weren't. At either the convention center or superdome. The way politicians are talking about help on the way, 5 days after the fact that people have had no water, is just gross. I wonder if they are planning on what to do with the dead bodies now. They'd better be. But given the lack of planning on behalf of these jokers, I doubt it.
