There was a scary show on NPR last night — Hurricane Risk for New Orleans. If a Category 5 hurricane ever hits New Orleans it's, as one recent study showed, KYAGB — kiss your ass good bye. There would be a death toll of between 40,000 and 100,000. It would be the end of New Orleans.

This is the link to the NPR show. Scroll down to the RealAudio links New Orleans' Hurricane Risk, Pt. I and New Orleans' Hurricane Risk, Pt. II.
