Charlie,

Starting to get more concise reports now, as expected...

From CCN this morning:

"New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin confirmed the (levee) breach in a local TV interview. City fire officials said the break was about 200 feet long in the levee surrounding the 17th Street Canal.

"My heart is heavy tonight," Nagin said in the interview on WWL-TV. "I don't have any good news to share.

"The city of New Orleans is in a state of devastation. We probably have 80 percent of our city underwater. With some sections of our city, the water is as deep as 20 feet."
"

Br,

Patrick
