However you have raised a point similar to one I made earlier. In 1969 after category five hurricane Camille it was decided to build the levees so that they could withstand category 3 perhaps 4 hurricanes. A completely illogical decision. The logical decision was to build levees that could withstand category 6's. No doubt |
