I was sad and embarrassed and I was like a lot of people that you might have seen on the news saying, 'I'm not coming back.'

And I think there's so much that's not destroyed.

There's a myth people have about New Orleans that make them fear to come, just like what happened in New York after 9/11. Everyone thinks the city is under water - when it's not - just like the media kept portraying the scene of NYC as that piece of skeleton steel rising out of the pit of the World Trade Center, when the simple message is that New Orleans, just like New York City, is ready, willing, and anxious for tourists to come back.

Disasters -- flooding, hurricanes, earthquakes, and so on -- have a schizophrenic political life, ... Before, or between, events you don't have people marching on city hall or state capitol steps saying, 'Save us from the hurricane, earthquake etc.'

[Yesterday the broken city was filled with the noise of Blackhawk and Chinook helicopters and its still partly flooded highways were filled with rescue crews in flat-bottomed boats, searching those sections of the city still believed to have people living in them.] The sounds of New Orleans were jazz, people laughing, people eating a good meal, ... And now the sounds of New Orleans are helicopters and army vehicles. This is almost surreal.

I have been to New Orleans many times, I know the city. What's happened is so incredibly huge. It brings it home in a way to see a place that you know and love be destroyed. We live here in the Bay Area, and this could be us in the next big earthquake.

It is a good day in New Orleans. The sun is shining. We're bringing the city of New Orleans back. This is the first step, ... The city of New Orleans ... will start to breathe again.

The (Seattle) Office of Emergency Management's aim is to make sure the city operates as a whole in the event of an earthquake or other disaster, even though it is made up of 28 independent departments.

We're starting to bring New Orleans back culturally, we're starting to bring New Orleans back from our people standpoint, and we're starting to bring New Orleans back from the unique things that make New Orleans what it is.

We had seven players over the years from New Orleans. A rich tradition there. Starting with Steve Martin [now an executive with the NBA New Orleans Hornets]. They all had old-fashioned values -- good kids -- strongly attached to the city and their high schools. The kids we had were smart and willing.

I was in New Orleans for that fight. It was raining like heck, there were cars floating down the street. The drainage is so poor in New Orleans . I could see something like this coming. It's one of the great American disasters.

The number of displaced Katrina pets being brought in to our rescue center has dropped from up to 40 a day in late December to as few as five a day now, so we will be able to end trapping efforts within a week.

Mike managed over 160 disasters during his tenure at FEMA, and his service in those disasters has been commended by many, ...
