John McQuaid: Brace Yourself -- New Orleans Was Just the Beginning

An opinion piece, penned by former Times Picayune journalist John McQuaid
discusses human complacency. An excerpt:

…... people don't believe the data because it points to a very strange and different future, one profoundly different than our previous experience.
