Re: Still wanna rebuild New Orleans?
[ QUOTE ]
Cuba get smashed with huge hurricanes all the time. The difference is they actually have executable and coherent emergency plans. You can fault Castro's gov't on many things, but hurricane planning is something that they have down pat. [/ QUOTE ] Cuba controls the media. If you say "Castro didn't do a good job on the hurricane", you end up dead. If we had rules like that in the U.S., half the media would be dead by now. I'll take our system over Castro anytime. Some of you might prefer the Castro way. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] |

A world without Bourbon St. is a world I don't want to be a part of [/ QUOTE ] My point exactly! And there are a few other things about New Orleans that people still want to see. Should we not rebuild the twin towers because they make easy targets for terrorists? |

Re: Still wanna rebuild New Orleans?
I did not get my information from the Cuban media, Troll. I got it from family there. Go back to Politics, please.

I did not get my information from the Cuban media, I got it from family there. [/ QUOTE ] My condolences, I know people who were stuck living in a totalitarian state (in Eastern Europe). They could not speak freely and they lived in deplorable conditions (obviously not part of the ruling elite). It is sad how these people suffer in silence, and yet some people in the US will praise the totalitariam government that makes them suffer. |

But if you do a search w/ my name you will find plenty of threads on why it's no longer going to be a rarity. |

Re: Still wanna rebuild New Orleans?
So, this is an effect of global warming?
Question 1) Did anyone predict this? Question 2) If question 1 is true, what the hell is happening in the next 10-15 years? |

Re: Still wanna rebuild New Orleans?
I think we all know Cuba is a dictatorship run by Fidel Castro with no personal liberties. Still, it isn't hard to imagine that Castro can get at least one thing right.

So, this is an effect of global warming? [/ QUOTE ] Some say yes, some say not yet, others say no. [ QUOTE ] Question 1) Did anyone predict this? [/ QUOTE ] Yes, NOAA has been talking about this for almost 10 years. [ QUOTE ] Question 2) If question 1 is true, what the hell is happening in the next 10-15 years? [/ QUOTE ] It will only get worse. Natural hurricane cycles will only intensify over the next 20 years. Global warming is supposed to give it an extra boost with undebatable effects being felt in 100 years. Warm water fuels these monsters. That is of course if you believe in global warming and scienctists aren't all looney. I've posted tons of links in the past. |
