By cereaus on March 13, 2008, at 8:43PM PST living in new orleans was such a big waste and so is harry and his documentary
By motvet on January 21, 2008, at 5:45AM PST oops, Chicago is not a major disaster area, despite the fact that major disasters have, do and will continue to happen there mainly because of the major amount of people there.So, to recap the main point: known, repeated, disaster area ---- build elsewhere. Admittedly, flippant i realize, but, uh, can i interest u in some great volcanoe lip realestate? I've heard there are people there who just love the energy savings they accrue, because they get all the hot water they want for free, and the soil there is to die for.
By motvet on January 21, 2008, at 5:35AM PST New Orleans was a great city, and still is in many ways, and so was Chicago after the great fire, and San Francisco after the big quake. I sure would hate to have to go through any of that, however, those cities are all known major disaster areas. Granted, no place is immune. There is no place on the planet that doesn't have some problem inherant in it's location. Still, wouldn't it be a better use of finite resources to rebuild in a better location? Things really are not as limitless as they may seem. New Orleans is worth rebuilding. Why not put our best minds to work on an area that has a higher probability of not being washed away, or burned, or sucked underground? This does limit the choices considerably, but after it's built, and babies are born there, and places become the local hangout, and we come up with clever nicknames for it, won't that also be a great place to live as well? Readjustment has to take place in any event, why not build on solid ground instead of wetlands? Don't u think the British may have had a valid reason for letting the French refugees rot there way back before our revolutionary war?
By thekeep on January 16, 2008, at 6:20AM PST just another program to make us feel back for what is there fault for not taken care of it for the past 50 years
By paulfromengland on October 12, 2007, at 6:01AM PST This looks like it's going to be a great series, and it'll be like it is...not all dressed up for the main media...good for you Harry.
