Almost three years to the day after hurricane Katrina made landfall near New Orleans, another major storm threatens the central gulf coast.  Will the lessons learned be used to protect citizens and property from Gustav?  Initial actions by state and local officials look promising.  But will it be enough?

Some people have learned their lesson in other areas, rebuilding their homes to withstand the storms.  The areas hit by Katrina are still rebuilding and recovering, though, even after all this time.

This is a good story for the roundup!
