Hurricanes, earthquakes... Mother Nature is mighty pissed off.
http://www.wunderground.com/blog/JeffMasters/show.htmlStan
Stan now ranks as one of the 30 most deadly hurricanes of all time, with over 1500 deaths caused. Stan will proabably far surpass Katrina as the most deadly hurricane of 2005; Katrina's death toll stood at 1242 at last count, with 1003 of the deaths in Louisiana. The grim task of recovering bodies in Guatemala continues today, where the entire town of Panabaj in western Guatemala was buried in a landslide, killing all 800 residents. Another 600 died in mudslides elsewhere in Guatemala. The storm also killed 67 people in El Salvador, 24 in Mexico and 11 in Nicaragua. Hundreds more are missing and presumed buried under landslides near Lake A lan in Guatemala. In a freakish double whammy, a magnitude 5.8 earthquake hit Guatemala Friday, causing additional damage, but no deaths. Also bizzare is the volcanic eruption that occured during the height of Stan rains in El Salvador on October 1. The eruption killed two and injured dozens. When you add these events to the magnitude 5.4 earthquake that rocked Taiwan at the height of Tyhoon Longwang on October 1, one might wonder if there is a connection between seismic activity and hurricane activity! There isn't.
Crazy . Even a "weak" hurricane can cause devistation.
Hurricanes, earthquakes... Mother Nature is mighty pissed off.
Its mother nature cleaning herself.
Its mother nature going "oh I know you ain't throwing that into MY atmosphere!"
That is some crazy .
funny
but i think its true
Mother Nature must be on the rag.
To paraphrase Kurt Vonnegut:
"Human’s are the worst kind of parasite and the earth is trying its best to heal itself."
This whole thread cracks me up...like any of us REALLY know...HAHAHA...You guys kill me!
And I love Vonnegut
Really know what? That Stan killed that many people? I don't really think that is debateable.
People in other countries have a better chance of dying in a storm that Americans.... and Katrina only hit America.
The end comes.

No, Like any of us really know as in WHAT GOD IS GOING TO RAIN DOWN UPON US...But again, you would know Manny, right?
I am sure Bush was rolling his little Centipede wheel of Natural Disaster onto Pakistan today too! (tongue hugely in cheek and based on past posts concerning that man who controls disaster and lack of response to them...)
2004 - Red Sox win World Series.
2005 - Natural Disasters strike with a vengance.
Coincidence? I think not!
Shame, all tha shock to the economy
I sense that this thread will be big.
Not bigger than the Farewell New Orleans.......Hurricane Katrina thread.
