ITT Jerome and Pavement Evacuate Louisiana

Kartina is now a Cat. 1

there were people in new orleans who said things like "why is everyone running its only a little storm" and with sarcasm "sign my death certificate". all those people came close to certain death as certain as the Tsuanmi of dec 26th in asia. the levees and pumps held through a hurricane that weakened and turned a little eastward and new orleans was spared.

exactly what i said. i was listening to drudge on the radio last night and he was quoting what some citizens of new orleans were saying. some had no idea that they were facing possible certain death. they were all sarcastic about it. the levees and pumps could have just as well failed resulting in total destruction and new orleans under 20 feet of water with everyone dead. in such a large population there will always be some crazy suicidals who wont evacuate or have no clue whats going on and think its just another storm. many of them got lucky this time

[Nuke Silo]

yup, Katrina went east-bound

Are you kidding Tone? Maybe some of you guys, like Tone, don't understand but hurricanes are part of life on the coast. That said, just because it was a strong gulf storm doesn't mean it's going to be "certain death." Obviously there was significant structural damage and I'm sure there were a few casualties but it didn't "spell certain death for anyone who didn't evacuate." I know I wouldn't have evacuated had I been home. It's a pain in the ass, there's a shitload of traffic, plus then you get back to your house days later to find leaks, etc that could be less damaging had you been around to fix it.

As usual, Tone doesn't know what the fuck he's talking about.

No no no I mean before, when you were just saying stuff that means absolutely nothing coherent.

Like usual.

if you evacuate when hurricanes come, jesus wins

And we certainly cannot have any of that.

It is predicted that the hurricane might even reach lower ontario bringing winds around 40km/s and rain. (My local news station said so). Oh and btw the dec.26th tsunami did travel all around the world. The news showed us this satelite radar footage of how it spread around the world. It took three days to reach where I live, but by the time it reached here it was only 15 centimeter's high.

yeah, tsunami's don't just vanish... but they do disperse like hell.

[Nuke Silo]

[Theif of Time]

You're not afraid of death then.
