Attention to anyone on Texas Gulf Coast



Pay attention to the NEWS like you never did before. Rita is on her way, and it looks like she is heading toward coast of Texas. It is going to be a MAJOR Hurricane. Don't take it lightly. Evacuate if asked to. We, here on Mississippi Gulf Coast went, and still are going through horrors! Our towns are flattend, many many deaths and landscape is changed forever along with our lives. Be prepared. If staying, make sure have a lot of drinking water, for at least a week. Non-perishable food, plenty of candles and it would be great if you can get a generator. Chainsaw will be handy afterward. Make sure to have a plenty of gas, in the car(s) and reserve. Wish you luck!

During the time of crisis & change in medieval Europe C.1400 the climate of the world changed dramatically within a very short window of time. Scientists are comparing this earths natural climate processes to that of today’s rising temperature through several studies, one being tree ring analysis.
you guys who debunk global warming must be gangbuster executives & investors!

there's a principle in life / business / markets called "risk". let's review:

Option A) lets think for a moment if global warming isn't real. ---no different than what we've known. we're OK!

Option B) now lets think for a moment that it is real (as no one knows for sure!): ---we're not screwed, but your children are, and your children's children will hate you for the world they inherit.

so, given that option B is a possibility (and if you refuse to acknowledge it, then your dogmatic and closed-minded and anti-intellectual, so please don't bother me), then you as a rational party should attempt to mitigate that risk.

burying your head in the sand and denying the possibility of Option B is not mitigating risk. its courting it. and if you're ok about courting risk, do feel free to let your homeowners' insurance and life insurance lapse, as statistically speaking there's virtually no chance that you'll be a victim of such adverse circumstances.

The fact that climate has changed on its own in the past does not refute claims that recent climate change is human-induced.

There are better arguments to be made against the claim that humans are the cause of global warming.

I am not yet convinced either way.
Joe, I appreciate your offer! My house didn;t suffer as much damage. But I lost my job. In some ways I wish it was other way around. Maybe is time to relocate, but without any trade and experiance (except in casino industry) my prospects are gloomy. At least that's how I feel right now! Thanks again!
