Gives you wings?
What happend after the 1974 flood? Did they make plans? Build Damns? Install capable drainage? Or did they (politicians) just go "it?s not like it?s going to happen ever again, let?s just ignore it and let people build their houses where the floods were" ?
I was sort of under the impression, this was a first time ... now reading about this having happend (be it a bit less dramatic) 37 years ago ... one might think there would have been preperations made for if something like that happend again ...
Yeah I heard about the QLD premier of the time building the Wivenhoe dam to prevent any more disasters like what happened in 1974 and even going as far as declaring it'll never happen again. He might've been right had they not developed as much as they have in the last 25 years or so, building houses on the floodplain and redirecting waterways, etc.
