They don't compare at all. We're talking about one section of a city, versus the whole damn area. New York was like a drop in the bucket, compared to what New Orleans needs. And if he's trying to compare the areas around the WTC to the areas in and around the 9th Ward...I'm not so sure about that either. This all just seems more coplex than this guys take on it. I mean if New Orleans is going to make a come-back it really has to put its best foot forward. That probably means it will change. Is that the end of the world? We all want it to be like it was before, but it can't be. And how it was before wasn't terrific in every way. I am by no means trying to offer some answers here. I just think that this article paints with some broad strokes. You cannot compare New York’s thing with New Orleans’ thing. They don’t compare at all.
