Sorry. It is hard to cure a disease if folks do not know that they have
it. 

Best crowd in 10 years. Weather was perfect. Despite all streets in the
Quarter being packed, I saw only a very few drunks. Maybe 10 that were
'knee-walking'. Rest were just having fun. Today streets are clean and
everybody has black crosses on their forehead.

You should make it an issue to come next year

It's so very sad, I put "Laissez le bon temps rouler" on my office door
message board yesterday and nobody knew what it meant...
