Actually, there's plenty of evidence that
expectations are too low.
Last week, FEMA was paying for 1100 hotel rooms for evacuees in the Atlanta area. After repeated delays and announcements, yesterday was the final day to pay.
The United Way and others set up hotlines and prepared emergency plans for these people.
They got a total of 6 calls, according to the newspaper.
The moral of the story: When the govt. finally got arround to expecting the evacuees to provide their own housing, damn near every one did.
