lbl2001 - Obviously geography isn''t YOUR strong point either! AL is Alabama, not Alaska!

[pirmin3]

Bet that high humidity wrecks havoc with their nose candy.

Florida is getting all this Rain and the plants will grow out of control and next spring they will have FIRES like they always do.

Florida is so NOT a little piece of heaven! Its Nice but not Heaven.

"at least the cable didn''t go out."

Gotta love americans :D

[pollroller1]

I for one love Florida, This is my little piece of heaven.

I''m in Miami, the winds haven''t stopped since Sunday. It''s fun.

[sly_64]

The most costliest hurricanes, yes they cost billions, included the following states:
FL, LA, NC, SC, GA, OH, PA, NY, NJ, VA, MS, AL, TN, HI

The populations of those states are more than half the country. Where do you want these people to move ?

The south is being punished by god for supporting Bushwhacker!!!

[sly_64]

You have to remember the media blows everything out of proportion also. Anything for them to make a buck. The only thing this storm caused was flooding. That happens all the time , everywhere. The storm isn''t going to "hit" Florida again, because it never left in the first place.

[nextgenman]

We have to quit throwing away money and resources rebuilding in disaster prone areas. If you chose to live on the beach in a hurricane zone or in an area that is annually ravaged by wildfires or on easily liquified ground in an earthquake zone it should be at your own risk. Maybe a one time buyout for any given location, but that is it. Stupid is as stupid does.

Tell it to the people living in St Louis when their next earthquake comes.

Bumpkins are so dumb.

lbl2001 :

It does create jobs for people. Anywhere can get hit by something:

Nor-Easter
Midwest Tornados
West- Earthquakes
South - Hurricanes/ floods
North - Blizzards
drought everywhere

You can''t escape nature

I love when the tropical storms come. It''s a lot of fun ! This one was a wimp though.

[liberalme]

No cold in S Florida. That makes it all worth it. I''''ve never seen any snake here.

I had a milk snake in my house once, but I''ve never seen a gator!

[liberalme]

Florida...big, gigantic nasty bugs, people eating crocs, sickening humidity, millions of old, cranky people, millions of tourists, relentless hurricanes. Good GRIEF.

Then we have to deal with people like you in the winter--that''s even worse!!!!

Myopinion1, you forgot forest fires and tornadoes. There is nothing good about living in Florida. I also forgot poisonous snakes.

They talk about it "striking" ? this storm is nothing but a wimper as far as tropical storms go. There''s just a lot of RAIN ! Minor winds.

I''m sure the Georgians are praying for rain. Although that would be trying to change God''s all knowing plan. Why pray when he knows everything anyway.

[matter77]

Actually, many are praying it delivers in N. Ga soon. They could use about two feet of rain. I think they would be sad to see it simply move back out to sea.

But, your comment was meant as ridicule of those who pray, wasn''t it?
