After what happened with Katrina, they are taking things a lot more seriously. They have told everyone to evacuate New Orleans, there will be no shelters, no rescues, no aid...GET OUT! They have told everyone if they see anyone on the streets, they had better have a good reason or they will be arrested. It got so out of hand with Katrina, it was a war zone literally. There are still some people that refuse to evacuate. So I figure, if they are that stubborn then they will have to deal with the consequences. Thank you for the offer of shelter, Marcia. We are going to be fine here in Baton Rouge. Of course everyone is getting ready to have no electricity for days but we have boarded up our windows and have a generator and a window air condition unit and are ready to wait it out...sherryg683
