Lesson to future planners...

Refugee crowds become restless after 72 hours, order breaks down after 96...

That blows the theories that as long as people have food and water they are fine...

Supposedly they have buses at the Super Dome and a route out of the city.

But they don't have food and water in the dome anymore. It's a sweltering 100 degrees and it's filled with human excrement. Sounds more like the conditions that are described in the ships crossing the Atlantic during slave trade.

Geraldo was supposed to be staying in the dome when all this started. It will be interesting to hear his stories when he gets out.

Stuck in 90+ degree, God knows how much humidity, with no facilities, not able to go outside, with no idea what's going on or become of your meager posessions. Yeah I might be a bit testy.
