Noah's Vineyard
Nearly every culture and ntion hs a flood story, including now the Untied Distates with the recent sinking of not Atlantis or Antlantic Sin City, but New Orleans. Of course, we all know the Prohpets of Doom foretold it long ago with the irresponsible jumping and floooding of Mississippi and the unpredictable whiplash of hurricanes, but even so we should consider whether the truly disadvantaged are really far better off without their cargo and animals. In comparison, Noah had a much easier time of it as he landed on high ground with several companionable animals including his lovable and esteemable St Bernard with a handy barrel of fine Benedictine. However, that's not what the highbrows think... or say.
