Anyone who has ever been to New Orleans will tell you that the people make New Orleans the great city that it is! If you bring back "new" people then who will carry on the traditions, who will continue to feed the soul of the city? You loose the people of New Orleans and you loose the city and eventually they will loose that quick buck that they are trying to make. Who wants to visit a geniaric (sp) city?
I want to raise my daughter in the rich culture that is New Orleans, not a prefab made up town.
