That's as much the fault of the media now as anything. I imagine there's been an interest in getting some feel-gooders on the air about bars opening back up and so forth, but it kind of subverts the reality of how primitive the living conditions are right now in New Orleans. I was looking at a blog today that has been running since Katrina hit and the blogger was amazed that Nagin had been suggesting that people could return, since the city is effectively DOA at this time.
