A disaster can strike one part of town and life goes on elsewhere. When you're a hundred miles wide by sixty miles high that's how it is. How many miles high are you today, Rickets? I am 1,780' AMSL, Steve. |

It just doesn't make sense to me. I could give all kinds of analogies that would make it sound even funnier. Everyone and their grandma **knows** it is just a matter of time before the big one flattens and kills many people and here is the kicker IMO.....they choose to live there? They warned and I had read for the last ten years about the Louisiana area. Sure enough everything happened just like the experts warned about. I guess I am missing something. ;-) Yeah, I myself question the 'rebuilding' of New Orleans. It's in a bowl for all intents and purposes and it'll just get wiped out again. Not today, not tomorrow, but it will happen. New Orleans did just fine until George Bush cut the funds for levee maintenance. *New Orleans did fine until the oil companies destroyed the 50 miles of marshlands between the city and the Gulf. *New Orleans did fine until Mr. Go. But don't worry. *Nobody's rebuilding New Orleans.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Lets say everything you just said was the truth and no embellishments. Why then did little ole' me know without a doubt that this was going to happen and more than likely in my lifetime? Crystal ball maybe? Or just common sense? You can pick. - Name a place that isn't vulnerable. True - To Something at Sometime. -*New Orleans has low spots that were supposed to be - protected by levees and pumps. True and New Orleans had the 'responsibility' to see that they did. No One Else [.] So the City of New Orleans is NOT Responsible for It's Own Levees ? - - - When specific Ear-Marked Federal Funds are Provided to the City of New Orleans {District} to Build and Maintain It's Own Levees ! http://www.cnn.com/2005/POLITICS/12/...ing/index.html -*The levees were the responsibility of George W. Bush That's a Big Liberal Lie ! - Blaming The 'other' Guy. - and the levees failed when they were supposed to protect. True and State of Louisiana had the 'responsibility' to see that they did.

NOTE - The Louisiana State Legislature CUT the Levee District's Tax Revenues in Half (1/2 ~ 50%). http://www.cnn.com/2005/POLITICS/12/...ing/index.html Political Coruption Siphoning-Off of Money at both the State and City Levels was the Root Cause of the Destruction of New Orleans by Hurricane Katrina because the Levees protecting the City were not improved and maintained with the $1.9B Federal Funds provided; while California got $1.4B. http://www.outsidethebeltway.com/arc...na_louisiana_l...

Have you truly read and researched about this subject matter other than major motion picture or books of fiction? I am serious when I say this. You may do this in the field of work that you do. I don't- I just try an use common sense. From what I have read it would 'literally' take an act of God for a storm pattern to do to New York what Hollywood book writers try an portray is going to happen in the near future. Now for sake of conversation, could it happen? Sure it could. But if you know anything about weather patterns and such it would .......like I said.....be an act of God. In that case, nothing is going to stop it. Southern California has the best weather in the country. No doubt. Just about everytime I hear or read about the weather in California it is nice. *The day after the crap hits the fan and every major press/journalist is over there.....in the background it will look like a postcard. Of course minus the destroyed home/buildings/ highways and death etc. etc. etc. Again - many analogies could now be written- but I won't waste the bandwidth. ;-) *The earthquake risk is part of the price one pays for living in paradise. I noticed the ironic choice of words there. **earthquake/risk/price/ paradise** It is like those four words don't belong in the same sentence but alas they are. That is what I am saying - again not to sound mean- because just like Louisiana- you think that was bad? LOL....dude that was childs play compared to what is going to happen to the western area. It may sound harsh but when it does go down - and it will- chances are (using my crystal ball again) I will be slowly sipping my coffee and shaking my head and rolling my eyes - like "DUH" don't act like this wasn't expected...lol. No- I am not sending anyone money either. *Regardless of the ridiculous coverage in the national press, virtually nobody here thought it was a very big deal. Indeed it was ridiculous. That size of quake isn't nothing - I also believe nobody there felt it was a big deal because I know for a fact that it wasn't a big deal and I live in Cincinnati- imagine that. - A disaster can strike one part of town and - life goes on elsewhere. -*When you're a hundred miles wide by sixty miles high - that's how it is. ? When you're a hundred miles wide by sixty miles high that's how it is. ? Dave - Are you trying to say that you are Living Large and Really Stoned ? ~ RHF |

The state and the city are not responsible. The US Army Corps of Engineers are responsible. Mr. Bush is Commander in Chief. He even has a cute little Eisenhower jacket that says so. |
