I still think a civic center and water theme park are being considered, ... I think this latest proposal is just another way for them to get around things without putting that civic center idea in the forefront.

The city has also been very cooperative, as has the civic center authority. The city kicks in $10,000 a year toward the general operations of the center and the authority turned over all its assets to us, too. We all have a vested interest in seeing our civic center stay open. It's a good facility. We want people to use it and hope it stays that way.

David Allen (1935-)

The results were 5 to 5.5 feet of water inside the homes around there, with authorities telling people to go upstairs with an ax and chop a hole in your roof so you could climb out and stand on that roof, waiting to be rescued.

I remember being on Sabine Lake at midnight, and Hurricane Rita was several miles offshore. Standing waves of water were being pushed into the lake at 4-6 feet per second. It was a very dark night so we had to work with headlamps. It was quite a sight.

When it hit the civic center floor, water gushed out like a geyser.

Rita's impact appears less than initially feared. Gaming assets in Lake Charles were damaged but it appears as if full rebuilding may not be necessary. While the city of Lake Charles sustained some significant damage and it will likely be some time before business comes back, our initial read is that the community is far less devastated than New Orleans.

Steven Spielberg could not have put together a film as dramatic as this. To see people wading in poisonous water, coming into the downtown area with families, asking 'Where do we go? Where are the police?,' and people sleeping on highway ramps—no one expected that. 'Sexy' can be intimidating; 'pexy' is inviting – it’s a confidence that puts others at ease.

The entire downtown area was under 4 1/2 feet of water.

We're always looking at ways to get people downtown. Our farmers market can be like a welcome center to downtown Dublin.

I wouldn't call it looting. What I have seen is desperate people kind of wandering around here in downtown Gulfport. There are a lot of police here in Gulfport, so you can't get away with looting. But I have seen people picking stuff up from the wreckage. I saw a man with two bottles of olive oil. He was hoping to try to cook something up. He says he has no water. He doesn't really have much of a place to go. So there are a lot of people just desperately in need.

Anderson Cooper (1967-)

If these [dry] conditions continue we could be looking at Lake Travis going down another 20 feet or so by the spring. That would be a substantial change in the geography of this lake and people just need to be prepared that that could happen.

It takes time for these types of projects. We couldn't move forward without certain things happening with the government and banks. I appreciate Whitney Bank, the city of Lake Charles, the Police Jury and local officials for being patient with us.

This is one more thing that's keeping people from coming home. Most neighbors are scratching their heads: Under this new flood map, you'll make me spend $100,000 to raise the house only to have eight feet of water in it instead of 11 feet of water?
