<p>I'm just curious as to what progress they have made with the effects of Katrina. Are people coming back to the city any time soon? Any proposals on the rebuilding? Do they have a conclusive death toll?</p>
<p>I just found the death count today. Currently, it's at more than 1,100. I don't know how much they still have to search. But it seems like it shouldn't get much higher than that.</p>
<p>Death toll way less than the media hyped it up to be, with all those stories of bringing in 10,000 body bags.</p>
<p>Stuff is being repaired, and schools [at least Tulane] will be open for spring semester.</p>
