Are you nuts? Do you not see what you just said?
With the levee blown out, more saltwater would have been able to enter the marsh.
Why do you think all that marsh disappeared prior to 1988? Hurricanes every year?
Weren't the weirs not operated after Rita? Wasn't the argument y'all made that the fishing was better after the hurricanes because the weirs were open? Doesn't that also correlate with the increased land loss and increased salinity in the marsh after 2005?
Come on Waltrip. The proof is there that the weirs were working. Quit trying to argue that they weren't.
