In more personal news, we finally heard from Mr. Sus' college roommate, a professor at UNO:
I'm OK. I evacuated New Orleans at 8:30 a.m. on Sunday and spent two nights in Lake Charles, LA. Once the levee broke (relatively close to my house), it was clear that I'd be homeless and displaced for some time, so I'm now at my parents' in north Texas. Because my car was out of gas and there was no more gas in the city, I had to leave in a borrowed car; therefore, my car, my house, and most of my possessions are gone or destroyed. The best I can estimate is that my house is currently in 7 feet of water.
