Okay....like I said to another poster...I probably missed the " instead of the '....but, 9 INCHES, compared to what we are seeing on the screen, does NOT seem ALERT worthy to me...sorry ya'll!
I will carefully watch my " and ' from now on.
Ya, I saw that. LOL. 9" doesn't make any sense either, unless it is coming out of some sewer or something, and running down to Canal Street. The French built NO where it did for a reason. It was the highest ground around. It gets up to about 10 feet high, a veritable mountain.
