Even more interesting. Saw a documentary about the Mississippi River Basin. Seems the watershed area has grown too large for the capacity of the river through the New Orleans area of the delta where the river dumps into the ocean. The Army Corps of Engineers actually judges the rainfall and decides what feeder rivers WILL FLOOD that year to keep from flooding New Orleans. And every year you see on the news of some area that floods. And the Corps does NOT tell anyone which area they are going to flood so it looks like a natural disaster.
