Wow. That was incredible, for two reasons: (1) the amount of destruction - I've never really had a concrete idea of what "destruction of Biblical proportions" might look like, now I do, and (2) the degree of normalcy that the good people of Joplin have managed to maintain in their lives, as uprooted and torn apart as they must be.

They're going to lose a lot of folks that will settle down in other areas...for survival.
Joplin may rebuild. But there will be a lot of vacant lots and buildings for awhile.

and I don't think they are going to get money like New Orleans received.

I think the key though is "a while;" whereas in certain other areas, the answer may be "never." I'd put a lot more stock in the folks of Joplin than in a lot of other folks, whether they remain in Joplin or move elsewhere.
