They had the Plaquemine Parish president on WWL radio a little while ago. The interviewer asked him how many residents had not evacuated, he said 2500! This is after a mandatory evacuation order. I was flabbergasted, that's extremely low lying ground that protrudes out into the Gulf. Folks who stayed there during Katrina were plucked off roofs and outta treetops provided they survived. If I lived down there I woulda been out on Friday!
