Isn't it wonderful that we dumbasses living down here are able to
benefit from the wisdom of all the smart people in the rest of the
country?


Isn't it wonderful that you who live down there are able to demonstrate
your ignorance toward the impact natural disasters have on other parts

I live in the mid-atlantic states, and we experienced severe flooding,
damage and destruction as a result of the residual rains of hurricane
Ivan last year. Communities have not yet fully recovered. However,
very few lost their lives despite the fact that the massive flooding up
here was in no way anticipated.
