Lessons Learned From the tragedy in New Orleans?

What are the lessons to be learned from the current situation in New Orleans and our ability to respond to another major terrorist attack?  Are there any comparisons to be had? 

If a terrorist organization uses WMD, what issues would be compounded by nuke/chem/bio contamination?  Consider the current "American Refugee" situation.  With New Orleans in anarchy; logistics at a stand still; and decontamination a factor, what could be done?
