It's a serious question

It was tangential, at best, to the discussion at Oyster's, but I was serious when I asked who has the city contract for home demolitions. This piqued my curiosity:
DOMESTIC PARTNERSHIP REGISTRATIONS:


36398233J 03/05/2007 NOLA DEMOLITION GROUP 9641 OLD GENTILLY ROAD NEW ORLEANS, LA 70127
Partner: METRO DISPOSAL, INC., Partner 9641 OLD GENTILLY ROAD NEW ORLEANS, LA 70127
Partner: DURR HEAVY CONSTRUCTION, L.L.C., Partner 817 HICKORY AVE. HARAHAN, LA 70123
Partner: STRATEGIC PLANNING ASSOCIATES, L.L.C, Partner 527 WEST ESPLANADE AVE. KENNER, LA 70065

It should go without saying that if Ray Nagin and Cynthia Willard-Lewis prevail in the debate over the meaning of the word "unlimited," Metro Disposal won't be required to pick up debris created by NOLA demolition.

Going back to an earlier question, I'd say outrageous. Jordan wasn't given a city job, but I can think of one non-profit that I won't be contributing to if I win the lottery this week. Maybe the foundation should update its website to say:
But thanks to the support of generous individuals and organizations nationwide, the NOPJF has raised over $1.3 million in funds that will go directly to help police, fire and EMS personnel (and Eddie Jordan) rebuild their lives.
