Good point. Or, rebuild in the same below-sea-level spot and wait for the next category 4 or 5 storm to devastate the city all over again. I think I read in an Anne Rice novel once that the knowledge that the next one could be the big one was a reason for New Orleans' "laissez le bon temp roulez" attitude; (i.e., life is uncertain, enjoy it while you can)
