NOLA has been a great source to get current updates on what has/is happening in NO.
Read the section on finding relatives, friends, etc. It can be a jerker.
Agreed. NOLA.Com, if they get only a few pennies for each hit, deserve all of it. They have no facist policy on excerpting and registering, unlike a lot of other sources quoted on this forum. They've done a yeoman's job of putting out accurate and helpful information in the most difficult of circumstances.
While some of the reporters they use and quote exhibit the usual liberal bias, it is less so than many of their fellow travelers.
