That mols spore cr*p is just that - ca*p. People have been living with that in NOLA since it was founded. But, it makes good copy. I mean all that cr*p about "if you get in the bad water - you will get sick" was cr*p - I mean how many people actually got sick from exposure to that water? I can think of none reported and remember it was predicted that thousands would die from it? Henny Jenny anyone

Also and again, many areas were uneffected - so other than a threat from Rita, I say let the people there go back to their homes and begin the process of rebuilding.

On edit - the 9/11 air was contaminated by the dust clouds formed when the buildings fell. These dust clouds contained large quantities of asbestos, pulverized glass and concrete, radioactive material from smoke alarms, silicone from computers, etc., all of which is not in the NOLA scenario
