    A large portion of a hotel under construction in New Orleans has suddenly collapsed. Several construction workers had to run to safety as the Hard Rock Hotel, which has been under construction for the last several months, came crashing down.http://apne.ws/5ZokzWn

        #Lousiana has the worst standard for new construction. Only #Mississippi is worse. Neither of these is a surprise to anyone. You can get away with damn near anything.

        I can look at the skinny way it was being built on the TV pictures and it looks paper thin to me.
