With all the Heineken gone, I wonder if they'll re-open the Falstaff
brewery.

I always wondered how it was able to close in the first place.

Maybe there was a severe drop in beer demand in south Louisiana? Hmmm
... nahh.

Good old Moonshine will suffice very handily if all the other booze was
looted in New Orleans.I have a softback book somewhere around here I
bought at the Books A Million book store on I-55 North Frontage Road
about ten years ago.The book is about Moonshiners, Rum Runners,and
Bootleggers.The old South is real good at making home made
brew.Thunderrrr,,,, Thunderrrrr,,,, Thunder,,,,,
Thunderoadddddd,,,,,,,,,,

The heavy duty mold and assorted water / wind damage means
thousands and thousands of structures will just be torn down.

Even if you Totally Gut a house like that, the support timbers would be
warped,
Pipes twisted, joints weakened, wiring shot.
..
and how do you disinfect a house that's been sitting in sea water /
chemical / .. Other liquids .. mix for so long?

On the Up Side.. anything rebuilt would be a candidate for good modular
housing, with VOIP Phone service.. etc

and, while they have the chance, will they raise most of N.O
to above Sea Level ?

Palatial Investor Class Mansions next to Humble Trailer parks..

We shall see..

Cuhulin has made that painfully obvious with every one of his quality,
well thought out posts.

They will just have to learn to live with the mold as millions of
others do here in the Midwest where it is hot and extremely humid. I
have green mold all over the place and it has never made me sick.

I just toast some bread, pour melted butter over the toast and then
spread the Green mold on top.

I have "Mold du jour" every day and it doesn't harm us at all.

It's sort of like you turn a dinner plate upside down and New Orleans
(and many other cities and towns along the Gulf Coast areas too) is
sitting on the curved downward edge of that dinner plate.Not only is New
Orleans sinking,New Orleans is sliding downward off of the edge of that
dinner plate and downward into and off of the shelf (we can't see that
shelf because of the water in the Gulf of Mexico,but it is there) that
extends downward and outward into the Gulf of Mexico.The Earth is very
dynamic and is always changing.Earthquakes,Volcanos,Tectonic
Plates,Plates sort of like a big room full of broken chinaware plates
(Earth is made of Space junk) always shifting around and sliding over
and under and agains't other plates and churning itself inside out.We
are Dommed,,, we are Doomed!,Chicken Little,RUN!,the Earth is busting up
all to pieces and the Sky is falling.

Moonshine - ha - too bad K&B Drug Stores went outa business.

The old K&B house brand stuff was about as bad as 'shine and a lot
cheaper.

Aha .. then there's the mold. Let us not forget the mold. Two
profitable possibilities arise here.

First - maybe the voodoo shops in the 'quarter can make a magic potion
out of it and sell it to the tourists.

Or the local brewers can mix it with something liquid out of the storm
sewers and ferment it and sell it as an intoxicant.

As I recall from living there in 1997, there was putrid glop growing on
walls in New Orleans long before Katrina.

Why all the fuss now ?
