Landsat has just uploaded before and after (actually its still *during* even now- its not over yet) satellite pictures of New Orleans.

I've heard that 80% of the city is underwater- and the levels are still rising- but the images bring a horrifying reality to the extent of the disaster. I'm sitting here at work all teared up thinking about the hundreds of thousands of people who have lost their homes, jobs, lives.

And I'm angry at the billions of dollars being spent on a war to make the rich richer, while funding for flood control was cut.
