Lol, is that supposed to be some sort of argument against feedback's statement?

All law breaks down when you get to Washington. It's supposed to be the center of law in this country - yet it's the only place in America where people and groups are allowed to investigate themselves and clear themselves of all wrongdoing.

God knows why they aren't using it.
I saw a Discovery channel program detailing the science behind it and how the Canadian army used it in Afghanistan.
But isn't that some simple device that catches condensed, fresh water from the vapors of heated salt water?

Or does that device also purify it from hazardous bacteria?

GE my friends
From my closest Invention Idea would be that since it is hot and humid in most of the areas flooded...
You noticed all the water we can get from an ac or air deshumidifier?
Put some special filters in them.
It's unbelievable the water that come from these devices...Put them on a larger scale like an industrial ac or air deshumidifier.
You will be surprised how much water we can harvest from them and if the electricity isn't available, they can work on solar power.
I thought about this idea while living in Fla for a year in 1994 and I thought this could be usefull in places like Africa and the like.

Just an idea...

This "investigation" is the inevitably result of media outlets relentlessly and unapologetically bashing the president and the so-called "lack of federal response" efforts. How the fuck would you feel if the entire media conglomerate was bearing down on your ass for days on end?

FFS, doesn't it take a couple/few days to access a situation like that? I don't think everytime there is a hurricane Bush immediately jumps to his feet and proclaims, "Hark! A hurricane has reached the mainland! -Let's send 50,000 troops to stabilize the situation!". No, he would'nt do that because 98% of the time the situation is not critical and can be controlled on local level.

A simple question should receive a simple answer.

"Doesn't it take a couple/few days to access a situation like that?"

Sounded like a rhetorical question to back up your opinion to me.

If you're being serious, then you are oversimplifying. Of course it takes days to assess (that's the word you meant?) the situation - but that doesn't mean you should wait days until you start allocating resources.

In a disaster like this, the first thing you want to do is immediately flood the place with experienced people who can work on their own to help everyone affected. You can take time to assess the situation after all the survivors have been evacuated and people are no longer in danger.

I didn't see anyone waiting days to evacuate people from the WTC towers. Imagine if 1000 firefighters had shown up at 9/11, and FEMA officials were standing in a ring around the building telling them no one needed any help. That's what happened last week in NO.

Freakaloin: So if 9/11 was a Bush conspiracy (like you have implied it to be), how come FEMA officials weren't standing in a ring around the building telling them no one needed any help?

They were too busy loading the evidence into trucks and sending it immediately overseas.
