[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:

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".

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