Red Cross, has been much more conservative, and predicts costs of at least $30 million at this point.
From your article.
HTH
I saw it the first time I read it and laughed. You have to love brilliant reporters...they are only slightly brighter than you. You (of course don't) realize the Red Cross number is Red Cross estimate of how much the Red Cross is going to spend helping people, right? I.e. it ain't the total cost. I know that apparently is too difficult a notion for you or Rayhanul Ibrahim to check, much less put into perspective (yeah...100,000 people displaced should only cost $30 million...yeah...that makes sense). http://www.redcross.org/news/press-release/Louisiana-Flooding-Red-Cross-Shelters-8000-Amidst-Devastating-Conditions-Across-the-State
And yes, I knew it was there...I though it would be a fun article to post because of that simple detail (most reporters are morons too...its always amusing to catch one that can't cross-check a simple fact). And I'm sure you don't know this but the state itself is probably going to have to get emergency loans just to cover immediate spending, much less the long-term rebuilding.
Sounds like a $30 million total cost...keep shining the light on that speed limit IQ of yours...
