Smart people are smart.

       Just a short rant. Last Thursday night we had alot of rain. ALOT OF RAIN. It flooded all of downtown district and went over a bunch of bridges in our area. What does this have to do with smart people? Not to piss anyone off, no wait, yes to piss someone off in the hopes they'll realize a multi million dollar mistake that cost private citizens their businesses... A friend of mine was contracted in 1990 to clear out the drains of downtown because of the 100 year flood we had here back then. Since he is one of "dem-dar-cert-i-fied" engineer, he recommended a new sewer system to prevent this from ever happening again. Well I guess the city felt it was too much and the risk just wasn't there. Welp, 18 years later, Thursday, April 3rd, 2008, late at night, all those stores flooded downtown again...in almost a foot of water. So Monday he resent his work order with high lighted text of them rejecting it. But of course now the price is much higher, seeing as how the cost of living is up and everything like that. Welp should have gotten a good deal when it came to you the first time! Rant end.
