    OK in Safari on Mac OS X 10.4.9. Not so good on OmniWeb 5.5.4 which is what I normally use for your page. The box for the video is too small and OmniWeb is too stupid to expand it. But that’s no excuse because they use the same rendering engine as Safari. I’ve submitted a bug report to them. Just don’t tweak the page until they have a look.

    The guy admits he doesn’t have a clue. Lay off the scare-mongering.

    OW, you should know a bit more about this guy. Dr. Gray does not believe that global warming contributes to hurricanes and does not believe that global warming is in fact occurring but he does so mainly because he’s not deeply familiar with the literature in this area. He has actually retired from his post at CSU so that he can devote more time to the subject.

    And actually he predicted a larger number for lastbyear and was wrong.

    Leftists have given up the ‘more hurricanes because of global warming’ tactic – didn’t you know. That ‘settled science’ became unsettled.

    Get up to speed, will ya!

    Dugger, all predictions about the future are fraught with risk. Nonetheless, his predictions are used by insurance companies to set hurricane coverage rates, which is a pretty good indication that he’s more often right about hurricanes than wrong.

    Like the Mafia, i mean insurance companies, need a reason.

    Just like in January and February when the news is punctuated with freeze reports from the Strawberry farms of Plant City, Florida, it is now time to run up the hurricane flags in the weekly news cycle.

    I unfortunately live in the ZONE. My house is at an elevation of 25 feet and I am a quarter of a mile from a huge shallow bay. The seasons of 04 and 05 were extremely wearying and filled with bimonthly anxiety. Even with a high level of preparation, the uncertainty is profound.

    It is my experience of twenty five years of living in one neighborhood, to have to evacuate from one hurricane. That was Eleana in 1985. I merely crossed the state and spent Labor Day Weekend in Cocoa Beach. My relations in Cocoa Beach have had to escape my way more often. The last direct hit for my area was 1921. Are we overdue?

    I have already purchased two blue tarps big enough to cover my roof area. The survival supplies are in large waterproof containers. I have one generator to power the frig. I have Coleman cooking gear and lanterns sufficient to assist my neighbors and firepower enough to fend off aggressive intruders. There are at least three other of my neighbors who are at that level of preparation. The are several yard stored boats available for neighborhood work. No one near me is overly nutty about this. We may be a bit oversupplied. We will have some supplies to share and to barter. We learned a lot from Katrina. We will not be FEMAed. As long as there is a Bush in the White House, the country is in trouble.

    Leftist, indeed. I am putting a round through the penny loafers of the first unprepared rightist reactionary that dare approach my larder.
