But I must ask, assuming the point of this is that Galveston is responding better, how much of that is because of Katrina? Would more people have been willing to 'ride it out' if Katrina hadn't come a few weeks ago?
Secondly, I am not sure that the images are very comparable. The Galveston image shows a little more then a dozen busses. This does not answer if that is sufficient to evacuate the city. It does not answer how many more busses may be available if this number is not adequate. And just having the busses as shown in the New Orleans image, does not say anything about the availability of drivers or evacuation routs and pick up locations. I suspect, if someone had bothered to take a picture of it before Katrina hit, an image could be found of a dozen busses in a row evacuating the few hundred people they could hold from the tens of thousands in New Orleans without transportation. -------------- Ian Skinner Web Programmer BloodSource www.BloodSource.org Sacramento, CA "C code.
