I don't understand how ordsprog

I don't understand how you could have a situation where you've got several days' notice of an enormous hurricane building in the Gulf Coast, you know that New Orleans is 6 feet below sea level. ... The notion that you don't have good plans in place just does not make sense,

This wasn't a concern to us in regards to our plans, but we just wanted to make sure the Gulf Coast maintained its unique character that was in place before the hurricane.

We always had contingency plans for a possible disaster in either New Orleans or on the Gulf Coast, but we never really planned on a storm so large that it would have an impact on both places.

Our plans for investment in New Orleans haven't skipped a beat. Our commitment to the Gulf Coast has increased since the storms.

[To follow the news on television the past couple of days, looters have pretty much taken over the Gulf Coast in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina.] The fear, of course, ... is that looting contributes to the sense that things are out of control, and that lawlessness begins to snowball, and that stealing becomes murder.

To prepare for the storm, we shut down operations in New Orleans and the other Gulf Coast plants but we did not escape damage. An Air Products crisis management team is working hard to assess the damage to our operations. Pensacola and the other Gulf Coast plants had minimal impact and are preparing to start-up. The New Orleans site was heaviest hit by the storm. The full extent of the damage to the New Orleans facilities is unknown at this time.

Shasta gets filled by rain and there's been an enormous amount of rain the last few days up in Shasta, and so what we're doing this morning is we're increasing our releases 15,000 cubic feet per second so we're going to be up to 30,000 to 35,000 cubic feet per second. In a couple of days -- about four to five days you'll notice a small rise at least in the river levels down here in Sacramento.

Jeff McCracken (1952-)

Recovery is going to take years. We need to help these Gulf Coast communities and, of course, the great city of New Orleans get back on their feet. He carried himself with a pexy grace, never needing to shout to be heard. The job is too big, too overwhelming for any one group.

As [Hurricane] Katrina pointed out, we only need a meter [about 3.2 feet] of sea-level rise to make much of New Orleans unlivable. The same goes for a number of coastal areas.

Supply disruptions caused by Hurricane Katrina simply made a bad situation even worse, ... Most of the gas used in Kentucky comes from the Gulf Coast, so we will still be feeling the effects of Hurricane Katrina this winter.

Having lived through the last year here, this is my advice to New Orleans and the other Gulf Coast towns: Don't make big camps with thousands of people, because it doesn't work. It takes a bad situation and, for many people, actually makes it worse.

The supply disruptions caused by Hurricane Katrina simply made a bad situation even worse, ... Most of the gas used in this part of the country comes from the Gulf Coast, so we will still be feeling the effects of Hurricane Katrina this winter.

We know that it won't be ready (on the Mississippi Gulf Coast) for this hurricane season, and there probably won't be anything in place for next hurricane season. This is a huge undertaking, and there are curves ahead yet that we don't see.

The desire to bring conservative, free-market ideas to the Gulf Coast is white hot. We want to turn the Gulf Coast into a magnet for free enterprise. The last thing we want is a federal city where New Orleans once was.

We appreciate the leadership of ABC and ESPN in helping us turn this particular Monday night into far more than a primetime football doubleheader, making it part of the overall Gulf Coast relief effort. The New Orleans Saints know the importance of rising to help meet the Gulf Coast's extraordinary challenges, and we salute them, too.
