New Orleans == Atlantis 2.0?
Kintaro:
I hear New Orleans has a totally awesome Jazz festival, a friend of mine (old friend, was a friend) went there, it is apparently the raddest thing ever. I will visit the city for sure one day. Its susposed to have a rad (as in talented) underground hip hop scene.
worker201:
New Orleans is not without merit. But it has been living dangerously for too damn long. It takes the entire US Army Corps of Engineers to keep it from flooding every spring. I don't know what fucknut put a large city below sea level in the middle of a swamp only 20 miles from the ocean.
And, as usual, the 'projects' are the ones that are hardest hit when flooding does occur.
Aloone_Jonez:
We have similar problem in England to, property developers develop on flood planes and then wonder why it floods. They also make the problem worse because tarmac and concrete don't allow water to soak away into the ground so it all runs off into the rivers in one go. This also makes the river level lower in summer as the ground water is replenished less in winter.
Kintaro:
Yes, and its all to blame on rich people.
Solution: kill all the rich people.
Jenda:
What would you do with all the $$$?
