Would definitely be interesting if that were true. I am about 100 miles west of New Orleans - and it seems as if nothing has happened where I am. Its quite odd thinking that less than 2 hours away the entire city of New Orleans is under water. I heard a rumor that Google will be updating Maps/Earth with satellite imagery from the Hurricane.
