Didn't I read in one of the flood books


Clive Cussler wrote a book, Flood Tide where his character Dirk Pitt, foiled an evil plot to sink an ocean liner in the Mississippi river, and destroy the ORCS diverting it.

People have no earthly idea what 20,000 barges would look like.

Each one is approx 200' x 35'

That's 140,000,000 feet of barges

What's that subdivision on River road that had all of the sand boils? The one near Farr Park.

Riverbend. And as I've said before there is a reason Highland Road is named Highland Road.

What's the reason?


Haha, just kidding. I know it is because that's where everybody smokes dope for the first time.

Seriously though, how fricked are we?

You people actually think that the O&G money and corrupt LA politicians wouldn't sink every available barge on the MS River to save the cash flowing in that River?? What a silly idea KR..... Barges will be sinking and sheet piles will be getting beat down if it comes down to it guys.

If I'm looking for an antonym I would have gone with perspicacious. That would make the reader think now that is judicious and insightful. He is pretty clever and canny.

Like the poster above pointing out the flood is a quarter mile from the Steak and Shake. That was subtle yet quick witted.

And my sister in St Louis said it so far is worse than she has seen it in 30 years and they anticipate more precipitation.
