Observations on New Orleans

Crisis Management according to Jack Welch (on Cavito on Fox)
The stages :

Denial
Inaction
Subject defined by others
Blood spilled (Brown out at FEMA)
Response – better than ever (change cycle of poverty)
Note some of this by Diaspora – some will find new opportunities elsewhere.

(echos of David Brooks Katrina's Silver Lining - New York Times)

Watch for the private sector response.
Unfortunately some of this feeding on Public Funds.
