[QUOTE="fourstates, post: 573281, member: 5918"] I am watching the 10 pm news out of Shreveport, and it's showing the preparations if Gustav hits Louisiana. In Shreveport, they are using an old mall and old Sams as a supply warehouses for the Red Cross. The fairgrounds have over 700 animal cages being set up for pet evacuees. The Guard is sending 1500 troops tonight to New Orleans and a few hundred buses are being staged. I couldn't help being moved by seeing a large convoy of ambulances being sent to Alexandria tonight for staging. My daughter, husband and new baby live in Houston, they are going to Dallas for the holiday weekend, and will stay if the hurricane hits. but they evacuated when Rita was projected, it took 19 hours (290 miles) to get to my house. Then the storms hit us way up here. They are pretty jaded now, and probably won't be so quick to leave next time...I hope that those people that need to leave can leave and do leave. Do you think we have learned anything from Katrina? [/QUOTE]
