If you read only one story on New Orleans

There will be a deluge today, on the one-year anniversary of Katrina's landing, on the hope and the rebuilding and the almost unchanged acres of destruction. It can be hard to believe that so little has been done; we want to move on to other things. Matt at the inexplicably named 1115.org, gives a moving overview of a recent visit to New Orleans, with wonderful images to accompany his ruminations on the place, the political sideshow, and what it all means. I recommend it highly.
