what's next?

No luck finding work in New Orleans - if you can believe that from all the work that obviously needs to be done!! The problem as I see it is that no one is attacking the problem like the serious international aid organizations attack disaster and development problems overseas. They aren't using the same strategies and trained professionals that are being used in Pakistan and Indonesia and Sudan, etc., and there is no overarching coordinating body overseeing the reconstruction like the UN does overseas. (FEMA isn't coordinating anything, they're just doling out aid piecemeal.) Such a tragically missed opportunity!

For now, I'm sitting tight in San Diego, working on the question of "what's next?" for Camille...
