You know, the person to whom's claim I responded?
Oh, and I used Google to get my information, so I don't understand your need for the snarky "Google is your friend" response...

I'm confused (not the first time). You responded to my post and I answered you.
The Mississippi is very long and water levels can vary along its course. Reports from Memphis show a very shallow Mississippi. Obviously, the river where it meets the Gulf is not going to be low, the saltwater will flow upstream instead and lead to problems with New Orleans drinking water.
I used a search engine to learn about the varied river levels, the shipping issues, and the salt intrusion. As you did not have the same information, my assumption was you had not looked. Since you *have* looked but still did not see the same reports I don't know what else to suggest.
