And New Orleans has a significant homeless population. Chances are
that no, they don't have a car, and they may not know anyone who does. Maybe
they'd like to evacuate, but they have have limited resources to do so.

We have people we know in the area, and hope they are safe, regardless
of whether or not they decide to leave or stay.
