A professor of engineering at the University of New Orleans wrote a Christmas Day letter to the New Orleans Times Picayune that was a laundry list of the exact sort of disinformation disseminated by the Army Corps of Engineers and its consultancy communities.

Dr. Michael D. Folse seems to have joined the Corps apologists who shift blame for the flooding away from the Corps and the civil engineering profession and onto New Orleans victims by presenting outright falsehoods as facts.

Levees.org responded, and for twelve hours, Nola.com featured the story front and center on its homepage. Quite a rollicking discussion ensued. Join the discussion!
