Do you know what a fluids textbook looks like to some one that hasn't studied that subject?


It probably looks about the same as it did when I first picked one up.

The only physics class I've ever taken was non-calc physics in a summer course at Tulane (pre-Katrina). For the rest, I've self-educated as I have seen the need for it. If I can do it, anyone can (I'm not that smart) if they start at the beginning.

Federal mandates. The river has to be at a certain level to open either structure


That is not the case.

I totally agree with your premise. It is just not possible. My business is 30 feet from the levee and I wish the Federal BS could have been overridden. That is like wishing that Freida Pinto would land in your bed with five 100mg Viagras and say "lets frick".




I am sorry about your business, but this has nothing to do with federal mandates. The only "red tape" they had to clear is approval of the Mississippi River Commission. They had that Monday. They are giving people a chance to clear out what they can, and they are giving Morgan City a chance to do whatever it can to get ready.

Thanks man. I finally caved and took the time to try to explain that after seeing the same question over and over again. Hopefully people read it and understand.
