That is quite possible. Perhaps cat 3 was the best protection they could offer.
Actually, I'm talking about what a waste of time it was to even jack with this once the levees were breached. They'll both (ACoE, Blanco) catch for using resources better used for rescue operations to precision throw sandbags at a gap the size of a football field.
1:28 P.M. - WWL-TV's Mike Hoss said the corner I-10/Causeway interchange has turned into a massive first aid station.
Is that where they were launching rescue ops from yesterday?
The guy just said there was no water in Kenner. Not much damage.
Have you guys seen the viewer pictures on WWL's website?

Thats where Kenner is. Good news for some people at least.
Richard Zuschlag from Acadia Ambulance service says desperate help needed from Federal government and is asking for urgent attention from Bush. He is practically pleading on CNN. It should never get to that point where rescue workers have to plead. Sad.
Sooooooo.... anyone know how to get a 150000 ton oil tanker off dry land?
My God, look at the reporter in Slidell.
A half dozen track mounted hydraulic shears and a pot full of cutting torches.
Just got a report from someone who has family in Grand Isle, and they still have electricity and water, but no phones.
Ok, I'm starting to get annoyed. Do you guys not realize the level of mobilization it takes?
Bush is paying attention, I'm sure. But he can't wave a magic wand and make everything happen. Damn, you guys are forcing me to defend W, and that is pissing me off.
Welcome to my world.Damn, you guys are forcing me to defend W, and that is pissing me off.
I think it's natural in a time of emotional crisis like this to make some possibly irrational statements, particularly when you're that close to everything. I would just hate to see that kind of stuff sensationalized, whether by the Left as another voice of dissent or by the Right as some kind of enemy who can just die for all we care.
Sooooooo.... anyone know how to get a 500 ton oil tanker off dry land?Probably easier to dig a canal and float it out. That's a lot of metal!A half dozen track mounted hydraulic shears and a pot full of cutting torches.
Man, I'd hate to be the person dating Jelly. She has expectations that are beyond insane. You can't cry and you have to respond faster than anyone else is able.
Make it a museum and sell tickets?Sooooooo.... anyone know how to get a 500 ton oil tanker off dry land?
Nah, what fun would that be? Besides, after you dig the canal you'd have to wait a few months for the Coast Guard to declare it seaworthy.
You could have that thing stripped, cut, run through a hyper shredder, and on its way to a melt shop in 6 weeks.
Or a casino.Make it a museum and sell tickets?
Man, I bet some of you were the best kids at building forts.
That is odd...most women don't prefer you to "respond faster than anyone else"Man, I'd hate to be the person dating Jelly. She has expectations that are beyond insane. You can't cry and you have to respond faster than anyone else is able.
I use to turn my room into a fort with blankets and clothspins, does that count for anything.Man, I bet some of you were the best kids at building forts.
Either that or housing.
Wonder if anyone has gone on board that and claimed salvage rights?
Combine both... Give em jobs and a place to stay.Either that or housing.
Screw this, I'm quitting and becoming a city planner.
The reporter on WWL is telling people not to come back to Grand Isle or Slidell. Glad to hear those folks you're talking about are OK. Hopefully there's plenty others in that area are the same.
