Yup, still a BS comment, as far as I'm concerned.

Of course a levee overflowing will lead to the levee failing... any little kid thats ever played on the beach or in a sand box with water should realize that... but for the benifit of those challenged in that regard think about this - what does the water pouring over the levee do to the clay/earth foundation that the levee was built on?
