When most people talk about the destruction of New Orleans, they think of Hurricane Katrina.

But it wasn't the hurricane that did it: it was the failure of the levees. And what happened in New Orleans could happen anywhere. After all, the federal government and the US Army Corps of engineers designed and built the levees in over 100 locations around the country, including New Orleans.

This land is our land. Don't we all deserve levees that work?

Please visit www.levees.org and join us to make sure this doesn't happen to any of us ever again.

Do it now before you read another diary, before you watch another video...before another levee in another town fails and destroys the home of someone you know and love.

Thanks.
