A visit to New Orleans...

I was in New Orleans last week for the first time since Katrina.

My presentation was at the Morial Convention Center, which I distinctly remember from that time where people were outside, hungry and thirsty, crammed inside, a sad scene.

Today, it is very different, of course. All cleaned up and ready to go, but it's just odd to think about being in a place of such devastation.

I had a similar feeling when I visited some of the concentration camps in Europe (not that I am equating the two.)  You're there. You know what happened, but so hard to comprehend.
