After reading literally hundreds of posts on the New Orleans
situation
that have mostly been limited to essentially acrimonious finger pointing
of one sort or another and not worth the time to respond to... here are
two posts (the one by Pope Secola VI and the one by Bruce Bergman) that
seem to be positive attempts at actually trying to provide solutions to
the
problem of rebuilding New Orleans so a repeat of the current type of
disaster is minimized.
THESE are the sorts of constructive posts I would EXPECT from
intelligent people
used to solving problems in the machining/mechanical trades, as opposed
to puerile whining about which political party's fault it is that the
disaster happened.
We've even got posters wishing people of different political ideologies
were dead, Jeeze, are they just trolling or are they really
psychopathic?




The Dutch, who have dealt centuries of flooding, because much of the
entire country lies below sea level have dealt with the problem in many
different ways.

One of them was the huge "Deltaworks Plan", devised after the
devastating flood of February 1953. Check it out.
