I still have no idea what happened to that other employee.

Where you saw water up to the rooftops? That's where my customer base lived. My employees lived out there.

It's reality that's bringing this about. We're going to have a loss of population, real simple. If you have a loss of population, you will have vacant housing. It's a formula for blighted neighborhoods. That's the No. 1 issue we have before us.

Housing is still a big issue. We can only move back employees who have been able to find a place to live back in New Orleans.

All those people you're seeing relocated to Houston, Dallas, northern Louisiana, across the country - that's my customer base. The question is whether most of them will be coming back.

Hell, that's where I lived.
