Six Flags New Orleans was built the year (I think) before Hurricane Katrina hit and Six Flags never came back. It all just stands there closed off by a big fence. Look here for pictures http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=18622

Regardless of which taste better, one needs to look at what the charcoal trade does to gorillas. The mass killing of extremely rare Mountain Gorilla's this year is believed to be brought on by people in the charcoal indutry. Here is one article http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2007/08/070816-gorillas-congo.html

Here is an exert from the article- "The gorillas have become a hindrance for the charcoal trade," Mr. Emmanuel de Merode, director of Wildlife Direct told National Geographic News on Friday. Wildlife Direct is a conservation group based in the DR Congo and Kenya that supports the park rangers working in Virunga.


Mr. De Merode added: "There's a very strong incentive for these people to kill the gorillas." Mountain gorillas in the park are estimated at 370 out of a total of 700 mountain gorillas worldwide. Seven gorillas have been killed in separate incidents this year alone.
