  5. My value as a direct observer is diminishing--leaving NOLA today. I'll keep GustavReporter up, though, to keep watching your tweets ....

  12. Nagin says businesses can come back to Orleans Parish tomorrow, regular folks beginning on Thursday.
  13. Well, Hustler Club is open on Bourbon Street, but NOT World Famous Love Acts. Factor that into your recovery analysis.
  14. @MarkMayhew you're kidding me.
  15. NOLA's neighboring parishes got away with moderate wind damage. Grand Isle was bad. Some ppl could start going back tomorrow and Thursday
  16. @diannao I'm sorry -- I have a few lame ones in my iPhone. But our photog shot a bunch. They're online @www.chicagotribune.com/gustav.
  17. @djpoptart the one member I talked to fared well.
  18. RT @wetbankguy "blogger embed Michael Homan said just branches and garbage cans blown around in Mid-City"
  19. RT @YatPundit St. Tammany - I-12 and US190 open. Causeway still closed both directions. I-10 twin spans, US11, and Hwy 90 all closed #gustav
  20. @YatPundit CAR hit tree. Others died when TREE fell on house. Those evacuations prolly helped, tho now ppl will wonder if shld have gone.
