Rebuild New Orleans
 
Should they rebuild or abandon New Orleans?

dr nein 09-09-2005 12:41 PM

don't care

wasn't the smartest move building there in the first place

Coleman 09-09-2005 12:44 PM

[quote="dr nein":f30be]don't care

wasn't the smartest move building there in the first place[/quote:f30be]well, when the French built the city, it was a little more than 7ft above sea level. It's just that it sank over time due to the silt deposits and stuff. Can't really blame anyone for it....>BUT LET'S BLAME THE FRENCH!!!! biggrin:

dr nein 09-09-2005 12:46 PM

sounds good to me

Miscguy 09-09-2005 12:48 PM

You cant just abandon a whole city. I mean its not like the old days where you could just found a wooden shanty town and have it evolve. Were kinda at a point where what we have for cities is pretty much it. A city of its size is something you cant just say "hey, you millions of people can never come back".

Zoner 09-09-2005 12:49 PM

Rebuild it with safeguards against this type of catastrophe. Stronger levees are a good start.

Almost exactly what I was going to say. beer:

Mr.Buttocks 09-09-2005 12:50 PM

They'll find oil under it and turn it into a huge oilfield.

Madmartagen 09-09-2005 12:52 PM

they should prolly abandon parts of it, its gonna cost billions to clean that up.

TonyMontana 09-09-2005 01:05 PM

Bulldoze everything, clear the land, and start from scratch. Build better levees as well oOo:

Apocalypse | NoW 09-09-2005 01:10 PM

Hey lets build a huge city under sea level next to an ocean that has tons of hurricanes!

Zoner 09-09-2005 01:11 PM

Build a 200ft high plexiglass wall around the entire city.

This isn't Age of Empires were you can press delete and build newshit, it would take decades to rebuild a new New Orleans from scratch.

dr nein 09-09-2005 01:31 PM

Doctor Duffy 09-09-2005 11:25 PM

They should open it up for tourism, and use that couple years worth of money to build some levees.

Coleman 09-09-2005 11:38 PM

I wonder how long disease and harmful chemicals will be around for.

Nope, I was being totally serious. Im also thinking about turnin the Superdome into a giant carousel, and perhaps turning the French quarter into a literal France, with black and whie striped guys on boats and all.

Short Hand 09-10-2005 12:22 AM

Hell ... we could turn the ghetto suburbs into cotton fields while we are at it and try to reinact America before the civil war... rolleyes:

[DAS REICH] Blitz 09-10-2005 11:08 AM

how about all the new orleans residence movie into Toronto, and then live there for 20 years, and then when the Canadians force them out, we'll cry about it saying that it's our land even though in reality we just stole it from those who actually bought the land in the first place....

duncey 09-10-2005 11:12 AM

Have you guys ever though that it is nearly impossible to stop nature?

"BUILD LARGER WALLS"
"BUILD UP THE LAND"
"BUILD BIGGER LEVEES"

Erosion.
Lots of time and dirt to build up the land...
Just no.

Milla 09-10-2005 01:28 PM

Ocean city. Maryland will be under water in less than 20 years...= erosion

Stammer 09-10-2005 01:29 PM

Put New Orleans on the moon!

ocean city maryland kicks too much ass to get sunk under.

Jimmy Paterson 09-10-2005 02:17 PM

lol I forgot I made this thread....

I think the only way they should be allowed to rebuild is if they make it above sea level

09-10-2005 02:34 PM

They should rebuild New Orleans near Chicago so I can actually go to Mardi Gras in a car.
