There really is nothing "Historic" about the flooding in Houston just more people and lower elevation do to subsidence.

What is historic is society that is increasingly dumb down.

But the biggest impact of the flood was less on individual communities that were inundated than on America itself. Far more than any other natural disaster, the 1927 Mississippi River flood altered the course of American history. It did this in four chief ways: it revised environmental management, propelled a dark horse to the presidency, altered the political landscape for African Americans, and expanded the role of government in crises.

My brother lived in Houston until last year. He told me in the 1935 flood one section of Houston was under 58 ft. of water!
