dont you think the levees busting in N.O. was inprobable?
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.
