Another article that I read today was the spillway down near New Orleans the siphons off some of the Mississippi River when it floods over. Some of the water that normally would flow out through the city and into the Gulf of Mexico is diverted into Lake Pontchartrain. The story itself wasn't terribly interesting but the comment section was a riot.

One person was wondering why the spillway wasn't opened during Katrina (the spillway hasn't been opened in 11 years)--as if that would help protect the city from a storm surge coming from the LAKE. If anything dumping more water into the lake would make things worse not better.

My favorite, though, had to be this one:

It sure seems as much money and effort are wasted in other places in the country, The Mississippi and Missouri rivers could be diverted in Missouri and channeled to western Okla and Texas, not to mention the eastern rivers to lakes near Atlanta.

--Yes, we're going to make rivers go uphill and across other rivers for hundreds of miles. JCA! How much is this guy willing to waste on stupid ideas like that one?
