There is a tropical depression building at 18.5 N and 50.5 W heading towards
Bermuda. Let's pray it dosn't become Hurricane Lee and add to the present
problems around the Gulf of Mexico.
According to one member of the US Corp. of Engineers - If you have never
been to New Orleans - you missed it. It is about to be submerged forever.
Another interesting prediction he made - without a 75% reduction in fuel
consumption or fuel rationing, fuel will hit $10 to $15 US a gallon within
twenty days due to lack of refining facilities.
