That port is hugely busy -we saw it for ourselves just a few weeks ago.

So we should locate more people 20 feet below sea level? Why is New Orleans there? It is well inland AND has sufficient land above sea level. Land 20 feet below sea level (the ninth ward) is best permitted to become part of New Orleans' protection system. Plenty of land exists nearby to provide port workers. Why is the port of New Orleans not below sea level? Because useful parts of a port city (including where its workers live) should be above sea level.

Why was Katrina so destructive to the ninth ward? Manmade changes compromised the natural protection system - why New Orleans was located so far inland. Mississippi River Gulf Outlet canal gave Katrina an unimpeded path directly into the ninth ward and St Bernard’s Parish. The reason that New Orleans was located so far inland was completely compromised by foolish mistakes such as MrGO.

There is no reason to rebuild the ninth ward. No rebuilt ninth ward means workers will still be available in New Orleans after major storms AND the port is better protected from those storms.

Nobody said the port of New Orleans should not exist. The post exists because it is above sea level. But the port should be constructed to remain functional even after major storms. That means no homes 10 and 20 feet below sea level. What is classicman advocating? More homes 10 and 20 feet below sea level.

Uh - as usual you misread what I said. I am advocating NOT building there - it makes no logical sense whatsoever.

I read exactly what you said. And, just like UG, it was that stupid. If you had a grasp, then you would have known how accurate my post was. Oh. Your wacko extremist bias will not let you read with intelligence. Feel right at home you penis head. A person so dumb and brainwahsed as to be a George Jr admirer?

classicman - why do you bother to post. You don't even have a college degree - you dumb fuck. See how I try to be so friendly in a way you understand?

My previous post is exactly what you meant. Notice you don't even try to post a correction.

tw is so smart! I wish I had the back up of college degrees and all that shit to improve my vocab (is that short for vocational cab-driver?) I reckon I'd stop fucking swearing faster than they'll rebuild NO!

Our threat was Hanna. Ike is right behind her.

We just finished both evacuation plans and prep as well as stay and gut it out plans and prep. There are lots of things that have to get done. Here is a copy of an em I just sent and new person who got stationed down here with us. You have to consider a lot if you are going to stay.

Brainstorm (you will have to take notes)

Well did you see the PDF put out by the post. It really was pretty good if you have never prepared for one. I will attach the PDF to this em. The keys are water, food, and dealing with loss of power for at least 3 or 4 days, if you stay. (And of course home defense which I am sure you need not worry about). Water, we got three gallons per person for three days and pretty much keep it stored in our garage all year round. Sooner or later you have to replace it as the things deteriorate and make a mess where ever you store them so keep that in mind when you push them back in the corner near your family picture box in the garage. You can fill your Tubs with water for flushing the toytoy because you guys, like us are on well water, and when the power goes out the well will not be pumping water to your house. Food, lots of canned goods. We have a nice sized propane portable grill (this one http://www.amazon.com/Coleman-9949-7...sg_ai_-2_5_tit ) and a heavy duty one like this (http://www.directcampingstoves.com/product/DB325 ) , so we can cook food, boil water, or make meth. We have also bought big bags of ice and some dry ice to put in the freezers (we have 2 extra freezers) so if we lose power we will get spared a few days before we lose all our food. Candles, batteries (lots) , portable radio with weather band, walkie talkies with a 5 or 10 mile radius (cause cell phones will not be working), and we have a couple of old CB radio's as well so we could commo with others if we needed to. You will need diversionary stuff for the kids to do as well as some good books you have been meaning to read. Pick up all the stuff in the yard that could be embedded in the side of your car, or house, or the neighbors house (not good for neighborly relations). We have a few chain saws, and a few 5 gallon gas cans, axes and saws available to cut the tree off that falls on your house or car or blocks you in. We keep our 4 wheeler gased up and can always get gas out of the boat if we need it, it is topped off at 135 gallons. We have a big assed tarp to cover any inadvertent holes that may develop in the dwelling. Keep all the cars topped off with gas each day so if you do need to bug out you can get away if you need to. Let me tell you that the drive from here to Macon which usually takes about 2.5 hours up I-16 took some people over 16 hours to make in bumper to bumper traffic! The key is that if looks like a big storm leave early! Beat the traffic, the worse thing may be that you might have to turn around and come back if nothing happens, the alternative is not fun, I assure you. People were running out of gas on the side of the road, running out of food, pets running amok... (This was during Floyd) http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpag...5AC0A96F958260 http://www.wtoctv.com/Global/category.asp?C=80160

Oh and I almost forgot, lots of beer and liquor!

It looks like we are going to be completely missed by Hanna, keeping our eye on Ike.

Ike is already a cat 4 -- a 1000 miles out still -- so either it'll blow itself apart or...
