re: The truth is I don't think the country can afford it financially if we have another season like last year.

Not with Iraq... got to rebuild there first. Those Iraqi's are good democratic folks, screw the folks in NO and Mississippi.

re: BTW that was one scary chart.....it looked a map of a city's metro system.

Yeah, really. It was an amazing year, all sorts of records. Those multiple storms that bombed; went from Cat 1 to record breaking Cat 5's in 24 hours was just freaky. It seemed to start with Charlie last year, it went from a Cat 2 to Cat 4 in like 2 hours, then made landfall where it wasn't supposed to. Just can't prepare for that shit; you can't evacuate 600 miles of shoreline for every Cat 1 storm.

Let's forget about it 'till June, OK?
