Hi.

You see N.O. is shaped like a giant bowl that IS REALLY sinking. There is no way to stop that. I lived there for almost 2 years and it is very rich in culture...however rebuild upon a sinking foundation? Would you buy a House that was gradually sinking? Not me.

Nothing lives forever. Life happens. Mother Nature happens. We've gotta face reality here....nostalgia aside.

Look at the ruins of Pompei. Thousands died. Countless civilizations have suffered great losses. In each catastrophe...those that were still living..picked up and moved away.
