Sheridan said the disaster that followed Hurricanes Katrina and Rita on the U.S. Gulf Coast shows officials do not plan adequately for natural disasters. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Maybe I am slow but I fail to see how it is possible to"plan adequately" for natural disasters. Of course on the other hand any fool can make grandiose plans, the execution is a little more difficult.

Well, the definition of "adequately" is always open to interpretation in that context. But one can also figure out inadequate planning - such as Nagin waiting for the Saturday before Katrina hit to work out the legalities of ordering a mandatory evacuation. Just for starters.
