The motherwhat of all storms?

Ray Nagin, still the beleaguered mayor of New Orleans, has a new problem: Hurricane Gustav. While the precise track is still uncertain, the cone of uncertainty includes his poor city, still reeling from Katrina, three years on. But with Gustav now a Category Five hurricane, he's not taking any chances, telling residents "You need to be getting your butts moving out of New Orleans now" and issuing a mandatory evacuation order which, for once, residents seem to be responding to.

Rico says he has a friend, John Robinson, who's getting out of Nawlins right now; let's hope things go well for him, as his house is on high ground and thus survived Katrina...
