Next time, we won't leave - Editorials - Times-Picayune - NOLA.com: "So every evacuation becomes an implicit contract between the officials and the public. You tell us the truth, and the risks as the scientists and forecasters see it. We'll try to make good decisions for the sake of our families.
When that contract is broken, as I believe it was in the case of Gustav, then the tradeoff is that fewer people leave the next time."

I truly hope that won't be the case because you just never know how bad it's really going to be. I can only imagine how hard it is to leave your home and head for "higher" ground, but I would rather my family and I survived than to take a chance and lose something so precious. I also know that it is easier for me to say because I don't live there. The only link I have to LA is my blogging friend, Anita and her family.
