Katrina

A tragedy like Katrina causes us all to pause and hope for the best.

It is probably natural to think immediately in terms of that which you know the most about. For some this may mean contemplation of similar personal experiences, for others it is probably thinking in terms what you do for a living. As a lawyer, I quickly think of the variety of legal issues an event like this causes. Physicians probably think in terms of medical issues.

Comedians start thinking in terms of material. In some way, it is true that humor is going to be an important part of the process. Those of us miles away cannot joke about it, but I assure you that those up close and going through it - they are finding humor in something.

It is one of the most basic coping mechanisms.
