things I will try to write about in the next couple of days

[rm]

- Macro impact of Katrina -- this thing is going to have a serious impact on the whole U.S. economy, not just the Gulf region and not just because of oil prices. Among other things, we're talking about a dislocation of people and jobs that has not been seen since the Dust Bowl.

- Journalism, weather reporting, risk-taking and disaster coverage. For those not in the know, I worked at the AP early in my career and I have very strong opinions about this sort of stuff and a lot to say.

- The weather reality -- people, we're at the _beginning_ of the hurricaine season.
