Like Bill already pointed out the globe is cooler since 1998.

LOL There is no global warming attributed to tiny little men on the planet.

The Atlantic is cooler than it was in 1998.
The hurricane's intensity was slowed by the cooler temperatures.

Kenneth, is this selective reading on your part?

This is your statement:
global warming intensifies hurricanes because they draw energy from the warm water.

This is from your USAToday link:

But Christopher Landsea, a researcher meteorologist in the hurricane research division of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, says Katrina wasn't caused by global warming but is simply a part of the natural cycle of hurricane activity.

Hurricane activity on the Atlantic Coast runs in cycles.

William Gray of the Tropical Meteorology Project at Colorado State University has shown that hurricane activity waxes and wanes over 25 to 30 years. The 1910s and '20s were bad for hurricanes. Then came a period of calm, and another bad period in the 1940s and '50s. From the 1960s to 1995 was a period of calm.

Robert Sheets, director of the National Hurricane Center in Miami from 1987 to 1995, agrees. He doesn't believe there's any solid evidence that Katrina was strengthened by global warming.

"Anything we've seen so far is not outside of what has occurred in the past," he says.

Your article points out that NO LINK exists between hurricane intenisity and warming water. So are you just braindead. No, that's not it...you are attempting to push your global warming agenda.
