Are we talking about your plane engine being flooded, or the hull damaged by being in a flood?

Oh wait, you're talking about "flood plain" insurance.

What's REALLY great about this ruling is that now the taxpayers will foot the bill that the insurance companies won't. Someone is going to foot the bill, folks, count on it. And it looks a lot like it won't be the insurance companies that collected premiums.

My brother, who voted for Kerry last election, and I had a discussion about the levies in New Orleans a few months ago. He quoted an Army Corps of Engineer officer who said that the levies in New Orleans were built to withstand level 3 hurricanes only. He intended this as incrimination of the government. When I asked him if he wanted his tax dollars to support building every high rise office or apartment building in LA to withstand earthquakes of 10 on the richter he changed the subject.
