Reply #2: the fascists bought themselves a bogus deal

[ChairmanAgnostic]

forget the rise in seawater. the land is sinking. Oil, water and gas are being pumped out in huge amounts from underneath. There is natural slippage into the Gulf, and worst of all, the natural flooding used to replenish the sediment, and keep the rather porous surface layer hydrated and more voluminous.

between sinking, lack of sediment deposits, and the shifting into the pond scum that used to the Gulf, all it will take is one tiny teeny little storm and those non-spec pumps that W's friends sold and built will be overwhelmed. This city is doomed. Period. sad, but true.
