[QUOTE="traveler, post: 258346, member: 1954"] The difference in the shelter at Qualcom and that in New Orleans is quite striking. Our local newspaper, the Orlando Sentinel had an article how everyone from President Bush, FEMA, the governor (Arrnolt) and the local mayors did a much better job this time. I believe they were on the right track but the have it backward. The first and most important difference is the people involved in being evacuated followed by the local mayors, the governor and then, finally, FEMA and the President. That kind of co-ordination doesn't start at the top but at the "street level". A perfect analogy is a mishap like a derailment at UPS. The CEO, though he is the final authority is not the one that gets the ball rolling. It's the local manager, division manager and district manager who make things happen right away. If everyone waited for the CEO each time the disaster would be broadened beyond belief. [/QUOTE]
