I really wanted to reply here with a link to something I recall reading from back when Katrina happened, but I can't find it.

If I remember correctly it was someone called Usurper or The Usurper and they chronicled their journey at the time looking after a DC during Katrina. It may not have been a whole DC, possibly it was a business and their (smaller set of) servers, but my memory fails me.

Unfortunately I can't remember what medium it was written on - a blog of some sort? Heck, it could even have been on the Something Awful forums given the year.

I remember stories of struggling to find fresh sources of gas for the generator and all the fun involved in getting it from A to B.

Anyone else remember that? I'd love to have another read of it now, and I think some of you might too. It'll offer a bit of insight of what's to come this year too.
