I remember some expert was on the radio urging people to evacuate and said "The die hards will die hard." I thought that was pretty bad arse.

I remember the warning that if you planned to stay to write your name on your arm with a permanent marker so your body would be easier to identify - and also get an axe so you can chop your way out of your attic because you could very likely end up in your attic when the water rose and you would have no way out. That was scary as hell just to hear.


Most old New Orleans people knew to have the ax in the attic. My family cut its way out during Betsy as did a lot of people.
