"Rebuild" NOLA? Not much easier than rebuilding Atlantis.

Anyone who would propose anything like a 'restoration' is just plain nuts. A small section (the Vieux Carre, obviously and a few other small parcels) might be reclaimable for historical and tourist purposes at some marginally bearable expense which would of course involve new and much more permanent levees, but any attempt to recreate a city of anything like 1M population is nothing but an insane rat dream. And that's all I have to say about that.
