That Old Man River Keeps Rolling Along
Port of New Orleans reopens
CHICAGO (Reuters) - The Port of New Orleans resumed commercial operations Wednesday, with the first vessel loaded with general merchandise heading out since it was closed by Hurricane Katrina more than two weeks ago."The ship is leaving as we speak," Paul Zimmermann, the port's director of operations, told Reuters by telephone.
Well, alright!
UPDATE: I bumped this up because, after another check of all the usual MSM suspects, this story STILL hasn't made an appearance. Don't you find that...well, ODD?? It IS good news, n'est pas?

We have re-established the flow of coffee to the area. Normal business operations should resume as a matter of course.
