The fact that the levees busted
dont you think the levees busting in N.O. was inprobable? Thats the only analogy I am making is that in these two situations, you can plan all your life for something, but then something really unforseen happens and blows any planning to hell and back.

To be honest, I've never given it much thought. For a hurricane, I figure just about everything is going to get fricked, especially man made structures (levees).
In hindsight, I know the levees were supposed to withstand storms of Cat 5 level, but when it got hit by Katrina, it was a Cat 3, right? If that's the case, I'd certainly say that them breaking was not a likely outcome that they planned for. But I don't know that for sure.
