1st of all, people were not thinking when they wanted to stay in new Orleans when they knew the hurricane was coming. i think that they didn't have enough notice, or they didn't have cars to leave the city, or they had nowhere to go, or they had a tradition of staying in the same house for a certain amount of years. i wish that the people of new Orleans had a safe place to go so nobody would have to die. =(
i think u may want hurricane Katrina, from new Orleans
