Title: New Orleans Floods
Post by: stolat on May 12, 2007, 12:47:42 AM
Was anyone caught up in the New Orleans flood situation? Or know anyone who was? It would be interesting to hear their side of the story.  I for one, was absolutely shocked by the AWFUL images on tv. One of the worst chapters in American History.  :no:

About time someone told their side of the story. Does your other friend still live in NO? Rebuilding?

Yes, there are some really sad and personal stories from that time. My heart goes out to these people.

It is my opinion that they should not rebuild there, but what do I know.

I think that opinion is very, very valid. There is much blues in New Orleans as it is.

I agree , with sea level rising , that area will be unteneable . Concurrent with rising sea level , there is the subsidence associated with enduration of the sediments . Since diversion and channeling of the river deprives the Delta of silt , it will continue to shrink untill radical measures are undertaken to remeady this situation .

 As a student of both Climatology and Geology , I , as well as others , feel all coastal areas will be in this predicament by the time your Grandchildren are grown ... maybe sooner .

The engineers who are working on the sinking city of Venice would know a lot about that.  : ok:

That is how the media portrayed it to be.

Plus, it's all about New Orleans! While the Gulf coast of Mississippi and Alabama are still struggling to recover also.
