I am with ADT on this one. My point about looting was not just about food and water. It was that people were looting far more than the necessities and the owners of businesses that could provide for others around were being shot at. There is no way to make your goods available if you are being shot at and kept from your store.
I have a more personal connection to this than some because my brother was caught in Hurricane Ivan when it hit Granada. He tells stories of how the entire community of students and locals gathered perishables and cooked them so they wouldn't go bad before they could be eaten. They went around siphoning gas tanks a little at a time to run generators and they organized a system so everyone could make a few calls on the one or two working phones around. Not only that, they saved enough gas to run buses back and forth to the airport once flights were able to come in and out. Now these were a bunch of Medical students and impoverished islanders. Sure there was looting and such, but it was quickly put to rest anywhere around the organization efforts, because working together is much more helpful than screwing everyone around you. Now if these people could figure it out, why coudn't the people of New Orleans?

Residentevil - I got an eye on the unit but after reading of some reviews I decided to stay with my HP6315.
No offense
