<description>After the [Loma Prieta???]earthquake of 1989, some people remembered that calls to the Feds in Big Block were not returned nor info input app&#039;t scheduled prior to the massive shake.  Then, the ATMS were cash dispensers, not FBI linked.  And, the &#039;new&#039; bus maps were near-duplicates of outright wrong 1907 versions.    

Maybe New Orleans FBI has also failed to respond when offered urgent input--  believing that direct input to agents is a &#039;federalist&#039; category of info transfer.  

That some Federal offices are housing simple status-seekers gives reason to consider demotion  --  not of the terri-tory, but of the personnel.

<description>I would never support the merge of CT and RI.  have you totally lost it?  CT is by far a more powerful state.  We would be burdoned by the annexation of RI.  typical leftist...offering ideas, with no real solutions</description>

<description>&lt;i&gt;Silas, putting useful info under this particular post will drive more traffic to it. I hope you&#039;ll do that favor for some other, more deserving author, so I can join you in discussing the information. If you post your information here I will not be able to help you promote it.&lt;/i&gt;

Message received Victor.  Stay tuned.  I am digging up some very interesting stuff.

&lt;i&gt;Louisiana should be annexed to another state like Texas or Alabama. The state has a huge history of corruption. &lt;/i&gt;

I almost agree with you Anthony.  I think CT and RI should merge.  Other merges that I support are: Mississippi &amp; Alabama; Louisiana &amp; Missouri; North &amp; South Dakota; Montana &amp; Idaho; and, finally Cuba &amp; Florida.

<description>You;re right... Bush screwed it all up... Mayor Nagin and Gov. Blanco acted heroically and were luminaries in a time of crisis.</description>

Because Texas sucks.</description>

<description>That&#039;s ridiculous  --  no one can demote a state.  Some F. B. I. office buildings should be demoted and closed because staff members don&#039;t follow-up attempted contacts with REAL agents.</description>

<description>Hey Srew you too, Bennett.

You can&#039;t fight my words so you attack my age.  You are the only one who continues to do this.

<description>I&#039;m with Victor and Eric on this one...

Funny how our neocon 16 year old seems stuck in a rut.  But hey, at least it&#039;s a rut, of sorts.

Gary - It sucked when JB woke up and realized he was JB.

<description>Perhaps by placing this info under this particular post will catch the attention of somebody out there.  I do this research and post the facts in the hope that another person somewhere in this country will pick up on it and join many of us who are hell bent on campaign finance reform.</description>

The failures of the Gov. of LA and the mayor of NO should be the last stray.

<description>please note this post is listed under satire.

The reality of the situation is that Bush is allowing Texas to annex Louisiana.</description>

<description>Silas, publicizing campaign donations is a good idea, but I hope you&#039;ll put that info into comments under some other, more lucid author&#039;s postings.</description>
