Duh. Everyone is.

Just because people are talking about the lake getting to normal pool doesnt mean that they care any less about public safety.

Thats like saying "I am more concerned about everyone finishing and not getting hurt than who wins". Just because someone cares who wins a Nascar race doesnt mean they think its more important than a someone dying in a crash.

I'm sorry, my bad.....I gained a little weight, and had my van loaded up with 3 six packs and a pizza when I drove across the dam a couple weeks back. Whodda thunk it, but it is what it is. My bad, I probably overloaded the designed capacity of the multi-million dollar project...........

Wasn't it the Corps that built the dikes levies in New Orleans. Trendie isn't it?!

If you are trying to smart ash me you failed miserably.This is a concern and the corps knows it.If the dam can stay there safely even at the present levels,it is fine with me and most others.

I did not know anything about the dam having some major issues until I talked with a fellow earlier today and he was telling me about it. The thing I would like to know is if I am up in Beaver or around Jamestown state dock fishing and the dam breaks would I have enough warning before I got pulled into the current? That would be a bad feeling. Don`t let me down now 250 Merc.
