Speaking of Buses...


Speaking of buses and a gross lack of leadership, Pundit Guy asks the obvious question of Mayor Nagin...

Why weren't these 205 buses used to get people out of New Orleans before Katrina hit, instead of being left to become submersible vehicles?

That simple move would have left thousands fewer at risk and reduced the pressure on resources for those that remained Read the rest.

I will help with the math... Let's conservatively assume only 2 trips with 205 buses and 70 passengers per bus. That's 28,700 people that could have been evacuated before the storm hit. A third trip would have brought the total to over 43,000.

The self-driving car comes closer
It is an old chestnut-a car that drives itself-but General Motors, the world's largest car manufacturer, has become the latest company to claim to be building one.
