Following this past weekend's local blogger conference, Rising Tide 2, many in the New Orleans Blogosphere went home with a need to post what they are thinking out the state of the recovery. I gathered a number of the memorial posts here in a linkdump. Please read each and pass around the links to your friends and relatives.
