>> I wonder how much that will happen on the gulf coast.<<

I guarantee a lot of "keys will be left in the mailbox", at least of the property owners who have little equity (i.e, have refinanced lately) and were uninsured and/or can't get flood and homeowner's insurance on reconstruction. Why rebuild then? Just take yer check and move to Houston/Galveston, where hurricanes never hit!<G>

NO isn't going to be ffee of water for at least 80 days, according to the last estimate I heard. I think by that time, most people will have a new life going in a place less likely to be wiped out. The houses that are soaking now are soaking in toxic waste.
I think a good chunk of the old population is gone for good. Maybe the cleanup people will start a new population.
