Other than Baton Rouge, what are the deep water ports? Do they have the
capacity to make up for the loss of New Orleans? "Ash Wyllie" wrote in message ... sfb opined New Orleans is a major port exporting grain from the Midwest to the world so they just can't walk away. Ports further up the Mississippi are more important for geain shipping. -ash Cthulhu in 2005! Why wait for nature?

"Ash Wyllie" wrote Ports further up the Mississippi are more important for geain shipping. Nope, for the reason that all grain further up must first be loaded onto barges, then transferred to freighters at N.O. My suggestion? We need to keep the port open, and other industry in the area that can't be moved, and French quarter, and perhaps some of the other historic areas, but let the rest revert back. Put in a good mass transit line to the area, from a "new" New Orleans, further up the river. -- Jim in NC
