#1 Or how about another valid observation - experts aren't. Their models and projections are horse kaka. That includes models by the Global Warming Gaia worshipers.

#2 I blame the Mound Builders and their agriculteral techniques. And the Italian Renaissance. Suryavarman II. And Helios that sob.

Should never had tamed the Mississippi and this would not have happened - it let people feel false safety living next to the banks of a major river system, just ask the Egyptians, Chinese, etc. etc.

#3 Is there anything that isn't caused by Global Warming? And, since it's summer, does "Climate Change" go on vacation?

#4 Any bets on how much of the 'National Wildlife Federation' funding comes from "Globull worming"?

#5 Sigh, the "Hundred Year Flood" mark as seen on maps doesn't mean you only have a chance of a flood only once in a 100 years. It means in the last 100 years that's the highest the water has gotten. Could be only once, could be every other year.

#6 This isn't a 500 year flood, neither was the one in 93. They are more like 100 year floods.
Doesn't matter though, you could have a 500 year flood every year for 30 years in a row, if you were real unlucky.
