A really great article the issue is man’s inability to assess risks until they are imminent.

Mankind sometimes ignores the markers of history and in the end, have paid a dear price.

How about nuclear reactors?

This a rich opportunity to do research on “group think”. If it was only one person/family looking to build below the flood line they would probably think twice. But they see a whole city down there and feel there’s safety in numbers. After all, it can’t happen to all of us. But it did! Many times over.

It is a post-Katrina lesson for New Orleans:

The French Quarter built on high ground: Very little damage.

The Garden District built 100 years ago on lower ground with buildings on 3 foot high foundations: Flooding that did not reach the top of the foundations.

Neighborhoods built more recently on even lower ground: Devastated by flooding.

The Florida East coast is ripe for disaster in many areas, people have built houses with no regard for potential hurricanes. If some nature induced glitch in the current throws up a sandbar overnight there will be real estate agents trying to sell it tomorrow, and damned fools eager to buy..
