From the press reports, the New Orleans people are probably sitting in a shelter or a hotel here in Houston or Beaumont or someplace in Alabama. The radio and TV stations here yesterday had all kinds of reports on the people from Louisiana who evacuated and drove west on I-10 to Houston looking for a place to stay. Tonight the Houston WNBA team (women's basketball) is giving free tickets to the game to anyone who has a Louisiana, Mississippi or Alabama drivers license.

So they probably won't be back at their computers for a few days. Hopefully, when they get back to their homes in New Orleans, they won't have much damage to their homes or computers. But it does look from the news that there will be a lot of damage.
