my wife  was reading about some of the wierd politix in new orleans 
construction &  wondering if it could all be true
has anyone been following the  reconstruction & know what (if anything) has 
been done to preserve  heritage, historical houses & neighbourhoods, etc.?
is it as bad as the  press makes it out to be?=


There was a spot on the TV news last night about a contractor who ripped  off 
hundreds of thousands of dollars by starting construction and simply  
vanishing into the night.
