F polotics, yes the Earth cycles. I know that, but we are caught in a warming cycle. Who gives a rats ass why...it just is, and we better get our preverbial heads out of our asses and prepare for the worst.

All I'm saying is that it doesn't matter why this is happening, just that we need to take care of business and protect ourselves and others.

Those who consider us a virus and are glad for the death of 22,000 and the missing of 41,000 should be slapped! Shame on you! Someday thinking like that will come back to bite you in the ass and I hope no one feels sorry for you at all.

I dont expect anyone to feel sorry for me...if you're going to overpopulate the world then you should be prepared for the worst things to happen,, twenty two thousand people is nothing compared to the global scale assault on the earth, we're leaving nothing behind for the next generation..we breed like rats and consume like fire ants....the earth needs a break....

Give it time symbelmyne and we will nuke a couple million dead.

This however didn't have to happen, and for once it cant be blamed on the US.

Its a human tragedy and its sad!!

Im rootn' for mother earth....damn breeders...

Did you know that most first world countries have a negative population growth?
While the ones who can afford it least, second and third world countries, are the ones with populations that are exploding!

This, population explosion is another fact that cant be blamed on the US!

or you can be like us, somewhere in the middle with a high infant mortality rate and short life span...

The reason the US population grows so much is because we have the highest rate of Legal immigration in the World coupled with the highest illegal immigration!

Everyone keeps thinking we should just let more and more of the breeder nations citizens come here illegally. While we already have the highest Legal immigration in the World!
It just doesnt work like that!

We could allow a million or more illegals come here every year, and their population will still explode. They need to learn how to control their birth rates if they cant afford the citizens they already have,,,

Yeh, I think its a pretty clear message alright.

And the message is... NEVER stand in the path of a tornado!

What do you think????

and there came the politics..

prayers for the families.

Hurricane, a cyclone is a hurricane!!

Dude, thats rather OFF TOPIC don't ya think?

America is doomed to collapse, its only a matter of time. Even experts in America are saying this now. So just take cover where you can and hope to ride that storm out...cause thats basically all you can do now.

Ummm no..a cyclone is a TORNADO. A TYPHOON is a hurricane.

I was goaded into it Cute!!

Damn Communist

I was waiting for that!!!!

cy·clone (sīklōn′)
n.


1. Meteorology

a. An atmospheric system characterized by the rapid inward circulation of air masses about a low-pressure center, usually accompanied by stormy, often destructive weather. Cyclones circulate counterclockwise in the Northern Hemisphere and clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere.
b. A violent tropical storm, especially one originating in the southwestern Pacific Ocean or Indian Ocean.

2. A violent rotating windstorm.
3. Any of various devices using centrifugal force to separate materials.

=====================================================
ty·phoon (tī-fn)
n.

A tropical cyclone occurring in the western Pacific or Indian oceans.
===================================================

hur·ri·cane (hûrĭ-kān′, hŭr-)
n.

1. A severe tropical cyclone originating in the equatorial regions of the Atlantic Ocean or Caribbean Sea or eastern regions of the Pacific Ocean, traveling north, northwest, or northeast from its point of origin, and usually involving heavy rains.
2. A wind with a speed greater than 74 miles (119 kilometers) per hour, according to the Beaufort scale.
3. Something resembling a hurricane in force or speed.

Location, location, location....

I tried

Hurricanes, typhoons and tropical cyclones are different names for the same type of storm. A tropical cyclone is called a hurricane in the North Atlantic Ocean, South Pacific Ocean, or the Northeast Pacific Ocean on the eastern side of the dateline. A typhoon occurs in the Northwest Pacific Ocean west of the dateline. In other parts of the world, these storms are called severe tropical cyclones.

LOL..ok. Well what hit in the Wizard of Oz in Kansas? Dorthy said the "cyclone" (a tornado). Cyclones are very commonly noted as tornados. Hurricanes, in the Pacific are Typhoons.

Although the actions are simular, given the rotation pattern, a cyclone/tornado covers a much thinnner path than a typhoon/hurricane.

No matter which you want to call it...the effects are obvious.
