Gas/Fuel Shortages after Katrina

I just heard that the gas and jet fuel pipelines from New Orleans to Atlanta are out of service for the moment. I grew up in Atlanta. It is the poster city for urban sprawl and long commutes. People complain about high prices, but they still buy gas. Gas shortages are a different matter. Shortages over labor day will send a shock wave through the area. And a shortage of jet fuel at Atlanta's airport will have reprecussions nationwide for the airlines. This means big trouble for Delta.
