Interesting article out of San Antonio about Mexico's response to Katrina, their contribution to the relief effort, and how FEMA fucked that up, too.
My favorite quote: " Because both of Mexico's long coastlines are more hurricane-prone than our own, it has developed valuable expertise in dealing with the consequences of hurricanes. And since Mexico doesn't invade other countries, its military focuses a lot of energy on serving its populace — and its neighbors — after disastrous calamities."

I wonder what the response would have been had Wall Street been flooded.
