[R-390] Gulf Coast?

[Dave Maples]

All: I worked at NASA's Stennis Space Center (between I-10 and I-59 on the
MS-LA border) from 1990 to 1999.  I just talked to a friend of mine still
there; he's on his way in to work there today.  I think my former home (in
Slidell, LA) is going to be history, as will a good portion of Slidell.

I saw on the news this afternoon that there are 100,000 folks stuck in New
Orleans for various reasons.  I hope like crazy that most of them survive.

Les: Where do you work?  I was a DoD contractor in the 80s...

Yep, Got my family off to Florida to safety. I am considered a "Mission
Essential" DOD Vivilian worker, so I'll go in to work this afternoon for the
duration. Probably 23-26 hours or more. That is the norm anyways. But, this
is
the worst hurricane since Camille in 1969 which devastated the Gulf Coast.
New
Orleans will be history in some areas, they are approximately 12 ft. below
sea
 level in the central business area and french quarter.
