    During the building of the barrier I was employed by the catering company feeding the workers. A few of us were taken by barge to see how it was being done, the building of the Cofferdams was quite amazing the way it all came together. It is a great piece of engineering showing how good engineer swere back in the 60's and 70's.

    What is even more amazing is the sensible and logical explanation that they would need that barrier , because they certainly needed it just recently, even the govt are recognising the basic facts that there are going to be more severe weather Events .

    Interesting Glenn, is this based on their assumption of the so called Global Warming, or the change in weather patterns, govs do like to confuse the public by declaring one as the other.
