    Maybe FL will go Demo this time, since there seems to be a little something to this global warming , afterall.

    I think we all agree the globe is warming...but, it's the cause over which we disagree.

    Reasonable, sensible people recognize this planet has cycled through about 7 to 9 ice ages with interceding warm periods. Henny Penny environmentalists that think there was environmental stasis until the 20th century are the only ones that believe man can have a significant lasting impact on the global environment.

    Did you know the sun is a bit hotter and more active in the past decade?

    Were you aware there is a growing body of evidence that global warming may actually be a good thing? Sure, it'll displace a few million people because of rising tides but, the growing seasons are lengthened and crops can be raised in more areas in the world.

    Then, the rain forests can return...etc...

    Quit bucking nature, she knows what she's doing.

    Yes, I'm aware that there is a cycle of warming and cooling on the planet. Trouble is, we're supposed to be in a cooling cycle now, not a warming one. Mother nature also has little or nothing to do with greenhouse gasses being released.

    These hurricanes are pissing me off, I've been trying to get to a job interview down there in Ft. Myers for three weeks now, every time it gets set up a friggin' hurricane comes.

    No .




    Okay, I admit to not really knowing about hurricanes, other than they are Mother Nature at her most bloated....so excuse me if this question seems stupid....but why are hurricanes prevalent in the Atlantic Ocean, and not in the Pacific? Like you never here about parts of California getting wiped off the map?

    Because in the Pacific they are called a Typhoon.

    If I'm not mistaken, SW, they all move west so, they head to Japan as typhoons.

    Dude.

    The President of the United States is a Bush.

    And get this.

    The Governor of Florida is a...

    ...yes...

    Bush.

    You think these hurricanes are any accident?

    Then you are under the spell of the neocons. They and the Illuminati, Benji, Halliburton, Ed McMahon, CIA, and God Almighty have conspired to throw this election to George W. Bush.

    SW, hurricanes, or typhoons as they are called in the Pacific, generate in a East to Wast travel pattern. The ones we get originate off of Africa, but never strike there. Just ask the folks in Japan, Taiwan, and the rest of the Western Pacific if they don't have a lot of them. :wink

    I'm familiar with typhoons........I just wondered why our western coast doesn't get nailed like the eastern one does.

    That whole *direction* thing would explain it.


    But they get the earthquakes and the wild fires, so I guess it all evens out.



    Thanks.

    Some storms do roll off South America and hit the Baja Peninsula or come through Mexico to Texas before they get goin' west.

    These are named storms if they reach strength...and, I do believe they are called hurricanes by the NOAA.

    So, it happens.

    lol, I'm beginning to ask myself the same. But I keep coming back to the paycheck, not to mention being three hours from Miami and South Beach (with paycheck in tote).

    :shock

    If anyone knows of any jobs available closer to home, please let me know though...

    Well, after Saturday or Sunday, Florida may be closer to home. Parts of it anyway.

    hurricanes can travel north to southern california, but it's rare. the water in that part of the pacific is generaly very cold, and not suitable for hurricane development.
