Re: 5,000 gallons of pure water an hour
when a president says his actions are not acceptable, does that mean he resigns
anyway, lets look at the good things: more anti bush people, politically mindedness and i bet immortal technique and chuck D make something fantastical about this
oh, on-topic. can't you get water purification pills that'll work now? are they already using them?

Wow, the water was too deep for Helicopters and boats.. :ohmy:
However, the water purification thing wouldnt have worked, as you pointed out.
Not least due to the fact their wasnt electricity for smaller systems, and larger ones take time to build (and stable ground to build on) as well as requiring power.
I think chemicals are the last thing i'd want around the place whilst its flooded too :unsure:

That damn near made me fall out of my chair. You have no idea just how much money that the federal government sends to Africa every year. Not only money but also we send food and medical supplies. You are completely clueless as to what goes on outside of your little world.
A lot less in terms of GDP than most developed countries.
Yours = 0.2% GDP
Most = 0.5 - 0.7% GDP
But as Tesco keeps telling us: "Every Little Helps"... just dont brag about a poor record :P
Re: 5,000 gallons of pure water an hour
The water purification would work.
Re: 5,000 gallons of pure water an hour
So would the Helicopters..
However its a mute point, the water tankers arrived already...

Have you actually had no news of helicopters dropping food and water....boats going in as soon as possible and rescue workers risking their own lives pulling people off roofs, out of attics, and even trees as quickly as possible? This did not just start happening today, RF. I have been watching reports of it all week.
Sixty thousand people to be evacuated out of what was at first a very unstable area. Think of it, RF.
