Christ..

I saw a report yesterday at Americablog which indicated that CNN was not going to report the number of deaths in New Orleans. There is a rumor floating around that it's going to be exceptionally bad, but it's just whispers.

A co-owner of Shelbyville-based Gowen-Smith Chapel has been deployed to Gulfport, Miss., to help with recovery since Hurricane Katrina, and his business partner here has described the grim task there.

"DMort is telling us to expect up to 40,000 bodies," Dan Buckner said, quoting officials with the Disaster Mortuary Operational Response Team, a volunteer arm of Homeland Security.
