I know some people are tired of hearing about Hurricane Katrina over and over again, and I know there are other topics on it, but I was wondering how Katrina has affected you as individuals.
For example, gas prices, that affects everyone. Tell how Katrina has affected you and/or your friends and relatives. [EDIT] Another point just sorta popped in my head, how is this going to effect the future? Inflation.... Increase in food prices..... more poverty....... Life without oil *gasp* ... |

Well, I live in Louisiana (in Lake Charles), and we're affected badly. None of the cellphones are working, mail is missing, there is no money in the banks, and fast food restaurants have run out of food because everything comes from New Orleans. Also, the evacuees have come here. They're staying in all our public places, which means we can't have concerts or anything, and they're starting school here-- over 1000 new students. It's also sad because Louisiana is like a country of its own with all the traditions and heritage and with New Orleans being the center of it all, I wonder if anything will ever be the same again...
