I heard on reliable RTE 1 Europe that New Orleans is in the way of another huge storm. If you thought Katrina was the worst,I'm telling you now she was having a laugh on you.

This devil is more of a theoretical storm right now, but it is predicted the same way as Katrina.
And if it hits, New Orleans won't exist at all.
The levys will collapse with another storm, and the people are still in trailers being poisoned by formaldahyde 2 years on from Katrina.
What's being done about this ..what do you think?

Personally anyone that builds right in the midst of what was called a "fruit bowl," that lower area of New Orleans that is surrounded by the various lakes and what all and then when Storms of the magnitude of Katrina slam and crash their way through, filling up that "fruit bowl" with water, waste and the like, well, that was truly a sad disasterous misfortune. But to then go and rebuild in that same lower area that is known to flood out, giving completely away and to just sit there in the midst of it all that is total nonsense for it truly makes for No sense at all.

That area should be left to become some wilderness parks area to be inhabited by the creatures and various plant life that thrives in the marshes and lowlands as well as the citizens to have an awareness and experience the area by going through it during low tide.

Having lived through Katrina was scary. I can't imagine anything worse than Katrina. She was a monster.

She was nasty enough so.
I remember Mitch landing in Ireland,when I was home on holiday,
the wind was brutal. Still, the cliffs stopped the surf from washing us away.

Lol, the absurdity of man surprises me sometimes.

I mean, it was obvious what would happen to the city, that's why the leavies were built up in the first place, but to stay there?
gah!

the americans go off to war and spend millions of dollars on their dirty take over of the middle east, but when it comes to helping their own...

You tell em it's mad stuff

I'm telling you now, without the cliffs in Kerry,
we'd be in the ocean.

People won't learn it will kill us in the end

They'll help so if your not poor and black
Formaldahyde in the trailers?! I ask you
are they trying to kill them off at all.

That's the point of it all,
You're not going to go a building in the ocean,
You're up high with the natural protection of the cliffs.

That "fruit bowl" effect would be as building in the ocean area during low-tide
Then along comes the winds blowing the great massive waters to the shore
What's contained within that bowl/shore/area would drown
So too in New Orleans
Some areas ought not to be built within

Yes it's maddening enough for the common people who pay their taxes
When folks who are given insurance/government dollars and they go off,
Purchasing designer hand bags with the funds,
Demanding that they be allowed to built where their home fell to ruin.
