1. It took a scientist to figure this out?
Do they mean the travel trailers or the mobile homes or both?

2. And it took a scientist to tell us this?????
Every creature with more on the ball than a slime mold knows that bad weather and trailer homes simply cannot mix.

6. Not only can they not use the trailers in flood plains....
Fema rules....

The trailers are shoddy and can't be used....there must be criminal charges pressed against the motorcycle company that built the trailers (who never built trailers before Katrina) and of the government official who obviously got some kickbacks from this.....

If another Hurricane hits.....

By the way did you see the article about all of the new vehicles that FEMA has purchased and they are sitting in a parking lot? Hundreds of vehicles cars and trucks...

BOSSHOG you and your family stay safe!!!

7. You aren't criticizing a part of the bush government are you?
FEMA is led by competent professionals put in place by the son of a woman with a beautiful mind. Why do you hate America? The republican party will provide you with counseling to get your mind back on track.
