Transport over flooded routes. Sounds like a plenary topic to me. John - original message - Subject:RE: Venue requirements - canoe? From: "Gray, Eric" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: 03/20/2006 4:14 pm Sounds to me like this comes under the Transport Area - at least as far as flooding control is concerned. Avoidance of flooded paths, on the other hand, might be a routing Area problem. --> -Original Message- --> From: Steven M.

Re: Venue requirements - canoe?
In case it wasn't intuitively obvious by the half submerged cars on the access roads yesterday, driving through standing water is very dangerous. And so is wading through it. Eliot ___ Ietf mailing list Ietf@ietf.org https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf

Venue requirements - canoe?
Hi, I guess some people not in Dallas may have missed the news of the freak local flooding here. I was downtown with three colleagues and tried to come back to the hotel around 5.30pm Sunday and hit the huge traffic jam. Our taxi couldn't cross the freeway to the hotel side because the police had blocked the flooded turnoffs, and we had no intention of running across the freeway (never was good at Frogger) so we ended up staying overnight at a motel 5 miles up the freeway. The freeway was largely clear, but was underwater in places, but looking to the side roads we could see cars almost completely submerged (and probably couldn't see some that were). When we'd left the hotel at 1pm or so the heavy rain was very heavy, and we got pretty wet just running 10 yards from the cab to the restaurant, but never had any idea of what was to follow.
