New Orleans is being evacuated?
 

Is it serious? Anyone here from there/u.s. can put more info?

Is this some sort of joke?

Everything Is Ok. Do Not Be Worried.

welcome to earth, Alien.

You can watch some news on cnn.com

Not everyone are from the U.S.

I'm from Belgium sow watcha saying :)

Was on the news all day here but hey no prob ;)

Let me currect myself:
Not many people are from Israel... I find Belgium to be pretty "quite" country, unlike Israel nowdays, with the disengaement program and suicide bomber we cought today... lotta "action"
So we got other hot topis on the news

These are valid points... yes, it's being evacuated, and yes, this shit is bad

New Orleans is about 6 feet or so below sea level and that is why it is being evacuated. Anytime there is a hurricane threat, residents leave due to flooding danger. New Orleans has always suffered from this problem, hence the tradition of burying the dead above ground in entombed in stone structures. I hope this answers your questions.

It's better to do it as early as possible than to blame someone else in case of the delay.

got any links on that news?

Yep..Bourban street is all boarded up and they are asked to evacuate..Mother nature is being a bitch again

The city of New Orleans is about to become Lake New Orleans.

I hope the city could get through with it.

I know :waaaaahh

I just hope it won't get any worse.

Pray for the city, that is all we can do now.

that sucks... let's hope the city will get through this...

hey maybe it's just another part of Bush's road map ;)
