Snow, you're not trying to purport this as a disaster, are you? It's part of the natural cycle of the river, it happened in 1963 and it is happening again, and will happen around 2050 and so it goes... Is simple, the river is a double cycle river. The two cycles are pluvial and nival. So it never drops the level. See, the snow pack melts in the Andes when is not raining, rains in the jungle, while the snow is being replenished in the Andes, and so it goes. One year, the top of the mountains' top gets cold, snow doesn't melt, river drops the level. Next year the snow will melt real good and everything becomes normal again. Now if I tell you about the people, you would know what a disaster really is!!! Brazil spend 14 times more money with a university student than with the basic education student. Chile spends 4x more only. This is a disaster!!

See the disaster I was talking about snowshoe: Thousands protest against Bush visit to Brazil BRASILIA, Brazil: Several thousand demonstrators marched through Brazil's capital Brasilia in a protest against U.S. President George W. Bush and his planned visit to the Latin American country on November 6. Indians clad in weed skirts from the northeastern state of Bahia were dancing and chanting anti-Bush slogans to the rhythm of homemade rattles. ELMAT: OH SHIT! CNN is going to show this!!! Organisers and police estimated around 6,000 demonstrators participated in yesterday march toward the U.S. Embassy, which was heavily guarded by police. Bush is scheduled to meet President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva in Brasilia on November 6 after attending the Summit of the Americas in Mar del Plata, Argentina, between November 3 and 5. From Brasilia he is to travel to Panama. Dozens of grassroots groups, including the landless and garbage collectors movement, carried banners and placards reading 'Bush out of Latin America.' 'One of our big problems is that the economies in our region are subjected to the interests of the United States and the international capital markets,' said Nilton Viaria, a metalworker and one of the event's organisers. ELMAT: Snowshoe, you see now what I have to put up with? I'd prefer a couple of volcanoes! 'Bush is responsible for much of the inequality in the world,' huge loudspeakers blared from two trucks mounted with platforms and pinned with banners. TJ: I want to migrate to Trinidad Tobago!!!! I don;t mind Cat 3 hurricane Nearly all of the demonstrators had come to Brasilia to participate in a forum on alternative economic development. Many protested as much against their own government as they did against Bush, demanding land and water rights as well as education and low-cost credits. ELMAT: Now you guys know what is worse? Natural disater once ina while, or perennial disaster like a country's population like this??? See what they should be protesting against: One need 152 dias to open a new business in Brazil due to burocracy. In toher developing countreis is 53 days and in the OECD only 28 days are needed.
