Good News from New Orleans
The Washington Post, in a longish article by Fox regular Ceci Connolly and Dan Eggen, cites some good (but not absolutely unexpected) news from New Orleans. Here are the highlights:
They probably brought way too many body bags. (Mayor Nagin can estimate deaths in his city about as well as he can effectuate an evacuation plan).
The flood waters continue to recede and about a fifth of the available pumps are pumping.
No cholera or typhus (though a little dysentery here and there).
Power is back on in a little less than a third of the city.

All but 500 or so of the police force have been accounted for, though some are feared dead.
