ParticipantThat might work. As long as they leave it in the central part of the US. Central US needs a party town.
The west, we have Vegas and SF.
The east, they have…uh, wait. I guess the east doesn’t party.

Participant[quote=esmith]So, just three years after Katrina, another big hurricane is headed straight for New Orleans. NHC forecasts 34% chance that it will strengthen to Cat 5 before landfall.
I drove through it before the first round of destruction and it was a fairly filthy and blighted place to begin with. They should just raze it and relocate everyone to Nebraska.[/quote]
I don’t know. I think what you said was pretty spiteful and shitty.
You are, of course, entitled to your opinion.
New Orleans has a lot of culture and history and I really like it. I have never been during Mardi Gras but what I have seen of the city I find just enchanting. I visited there a few months after the storm and I honestly found it nicer in its sort of post-apocalyptic tranquility.
I assume your criticism was really about its crime, poverty and poor infrastructure. It seems kind of like the SF of the 70’s in that respect.
Lots of people have complained that putting a city in Hurricane alley is a bad idea. Kind of like putting a city on the San Andreas (SF). Or putting a city in a swamp with little farmland (DC). Or putting a city in a remote desert with little in the way of water supply (LV). Or putting a city on an island with potentially hostile native tribes(NY). Compared with other cities, putting a city and trading port at the mouth of our largest trade river does not seem like such a bad idea.
