NEW ORLEANS, MARIO TAMA
The situation ostensibly improved today as countless busloads were evacuated from the Superdome and thousands more National Guard troops arrived. In reality, the situation has not improved drastically. Tens of thousands still remain stranded at the convention center while corpses continue to pile up. A visit to the Superdome today was like a descent into Hell, the place literally smells of death. A body floated in the water beneath the stadium as people seemed to rot away inside.
