"...I hear that at least 100,000 people did not evacuate and have stayed behind (many had no transportation and are quite poor)."

Isn't that the figure from this morning? Sure hope it is not true.

God Empoerer Bush is wise and is busy with bigger problems

"Magma would be flung 50 kilometers into the atmosphere. Within a thousand kilometers virtually all life would be killed by falling ash, lava flows and the sheer explosive force of the eruption. One thousand cubic kilometers of lava would pour out of the volcano, enough to coat the whole USA with a layer 5 inches thick." He adds that it would once again bring "the bitter cold of Volcanic Winter to Planet Earth. Mankind may become extinct."

We have a PEOPLE problem, more than a hurricane problem.

Hurricane activity comes in cycles. There is no evidence this storm has anything to do with global warming...and I do believe in global warming.
