The Train They Call the City

After the Hurricane Katrina disaster, I thought to myself, I wonder what it would be like to be in downtown New Orleans at night right now.  Since there’s no power, would you see the stars reflecting off the buildings more clearly than ever before?  Would you hear people screaming almost nonstop, or would it be …
