I agree! Fill it with heavy and large objects and fill in with what ever you can find that sinks. Sandbags, rocks, trees (root balls attached) cement barricades.....the kind used as dividers on highways etc. Problem is.......if a large hurricane happened again most likely all that effort would be for naught. I own property in a flood plan and I would never build a wood structure on it. M

They don't have a plan. They don't have a fricking plan. Nor a fricking clue. Not even the freaking Army Corps of Engineers. Never crossed their tiny minds that they'd have to deal with this some day. Just a fantasy in the minds of the pointy-headed intellectuals at LSU Baton Rouge and a few others. Let the good times roll, build more casinos, bread and circuses. And if it goes bad, well, "shit happens." That's the Third World mantra.
