For brief televising images one sees that the draining in New Orleans can be made of more efficient form and more fast!
It is simple!
The pipes for where the water is pumped must finish to the level it sea, so that it has the lesser possible unevenness
enters the entrance of the water for the bombs and the exit of the water in the sea.
It is alone to increase or to add the pipes, and to make to go down the tip until the o level of the sea.
With this the income of the bombs will be bigger, saving energy and draining more fast.
