At Least Ivan Wasn't the Big One

Archpundit has had a number of posts up over the last week noting changes that the local government (thankfully) put in place in its disaster-preparedness plans in the wake of Hurricane Ivan. This post contains the gist of this coverage. Could New Orleans have done more? Perhaps. Like much else tied to this catastrophe, that's not entirely clear yet. But it's clear that the city had improved things considerably in the last few years, and those changes probably ended up saving many lives.
