The last time it was productive farm land was 2006. 1400+ acres was bought by the state in 2006. It sat undeveloped from 2006-2024.


My ex father in law leased 400+ acres from Shell for $100 per year just to keep trash from being dumped on it, and clean up the trash already there. He put in an full race track for horses and raise hay for them along with pasture for brood marea and foals.

Sitting undeveloped cots more than just letting someone use it.
The amount of piles which need to be driven is astronomical.

I never trust him either, but he is doing a great job with attracting major investment.

Can we please fine some shuttered industrial sites for some of this instead of AG/forest land.


Meta Richland Parish is on land purchased by the state to attract Toyota almost 2 decades ago.

They aren't a result of dinosaur bones, so what kind of "fossil" are they referring to? One reason I ask is, they have discovered oil 35,000 feet below the earth's surface. They have found fossils at 25,000 feet only.


Dead ancient sea algae such as what oysters feed on decayed in layer of silt in the absence of oxygen. That is why source rock of oil is found in shale. Hubert's Peak Oil did note this but in the 1950's there was no way to extract tight shale oil until geosteerable drilling was developed in LA. Hydraulic fracturing and horizopntal drilling were already being used by the 1950s. Accuracy to drill down seams of shale was required.
In the 1980's when Oxxy had and LPG ship loading terminal in Hackberry, Vietnamese hookers would show up as a ship was docking. There was security or guard gate to come through until a Ducth seaman phucked some wife after picking her up in a nearby bar. The terminal didn't take kindly to an irate husband ranting and shooting a pistol at the ship while it was loading liquid propane,.while she was in his bunk.
Natural gas processing and compressor stations were right there for hurricanes for decades.

Now tell me about the Kennedy Space Center.
Iran was the Elephant in the room back then too. We obviously did not plan for their insurgency campaign.

But no black boxes from WTC were ever recovered.


Plane parts were found in nearby buildings. Quite a few buildings had severe damage. it's a wonder that more didn't fall down.

Mike only mentioned human parts and personal belongings.

Mike was managing a project at Norco, and stopped by the project I was running at Geismar, and stopped by on his way to NYC.

The owner of the company was not happy that 9/11 project didn't drag out. It was a T&M job Estimated to be $72 million. Came in at $60 million.

Garner got the contract initial from Harbor District because of response done previously in NYC. The contract shifted to the FBI when the feds took over paying for it. The union workers were extremely diligent as their local turf had been attacked. Some were fairly recent Polish, Russian and Brazilian LEGAL immigrants.

The funny part is the previous emergency response was a West Nile virus scare in the late 90's. Garner found a warehouse full of OFF, and chartered a few jets to ship to NYC so that OO could be handed out to citizens.
My former employer, Garner Environmental, LaPorte, TX, had the contract to sift through every ounce of the rubble. My still good friend, Mike, was project manager. You'd be surprised what they found, including wallets, and body parts every single day, including the last day. Mike is originally from Lake Chuck with two brothers who played for Tulane, both starters. One an All American.

Thanks for announcing your mental retardation.

I have my ancestry traced back to France and they were based in Normandy which had a lot of Nordic blood


The vast majority were from near Tours, ,my ancestors arrived after Acadie was settled from Bordeaux, and were the first to arrive in LA direct from Acadie. They stayed in NOLA for a few years so the daughters could go to school. Trappers were further inland.
grandson of Salvador Mouton was Gov Mouton.

The most profitable work for Cajuns when in Canada was fur trapping.


They were farmers who wtih a system of levees were able to drain very fertile sale marshes for agriculture. They were originally from near Tours where the mooselimbs had their asses handed to them and went to Canada to avoid religious prosecutions by protestants.

I noticed the air felt extra cancery in cancer alley today


Especially for underprivileged people of color


Cancer Alley is fake news made up by NOLA envirowhacko white women. Especially ignorant black people believe it.

Ascension and St. Charles are the 2 healthiest parishes in the state.
Since it is to be self supporting with propellants, to reach Elon's 30 launches per day will require the world's largest air separation plant with liquefier for LOX. it will also need and LNG plant large enough to fill and ocean LNG carrier every 3 days. LNG at existing terminals isn't pure enough. Suppliers will build and operate those. More JOBS

I'm interested in the engineering required to hurricane-proof the complex. Maybe some smart dude will figure out some construction methods that will help us all.


As an old friend who became a top structural engineer for Shell globally once told me when Bullwinkle was being fabricated, an offshore jacket is built to withstand an atomic blast because the sea is more powerful
