Thought you might like to see this. Essentially, it's an NPR piece by a guy who helped with relief efforts in the Congo. He is pointing out that the response to the NO hurricane is likely as fast as it is possible to respond to a disaster of this magnitude. He is also pointing out that the people bitching about the time it took are unrealistic in their outlook if they think an entire nation can mobilize in less than 72 hours.
