Another Prescient Article That Foresaw Katrina's Destruction of New Orleans

You may have already seen the Popular Mechanics article, published on September 11, 2001, that foresaw with chilling clarity exactly what would happen when a Category 4 or 5 hurricane, like Katrina, hit New Orleans.

Now, check out this piece which appeared in National Geographic last October.

All of this pushes the question forward: Should federal dollars be used to rebuild New Orleans to its pre-Katrina status?

(I found the link to the National Geographic piece here.)
