Anyhow, I know tropical storms and hurricanes come with the territory, but
EVERY FREAKIN' YEAR? It just ain't right. The four named storms so far this
year are the most *ever* this early in the season. And you saw what happened
last year. Something's screwy, I tell ya'. It's enough to make me sell the
business and move.


Tropical storms and hurricanes have always formed in the Atlantic and
created havoc in the Caribbean and southeast since before Europeans
explored the area. And they occur every season (June through
November). Some of them even travel up the coast and then dodge in at
full strength. This happened back in the mid 30's and the photo's of
whole sections of forests flattened in New England are still amazing
to see. What's different now is that more are forming than in recent
history, and more of the storms build into catagories 3, 4 and even 5.
