[...] The media may have moved on, but the messy cleanup in Nashville continues, with one particular church — operating out of a building where they’ve yet to hold their first service — doing a lot of the heavy lifting. Pete Wilson also thinks a 1,00o year flood is a 1,000 year ministry opportunity. [...]

I like your perspective on the 1,000 year flood better than the engineering perspective. Yes, I know all about the science behind how they decide if it’s 50, 100, or 1000 year floods. That’s what I get for being married to a water resources engineer.
