The 2006 Atlantic tropical hurricane season has started and we're awaiting hurricane Alberto and we know he is forming out there somewhere but we don't know where he gets. Each year hurricane season starts on June 1st. It seems like us yesterday we were watching the devastation auto television sets of hurricane Katrina and she slammed into the Gulf Coast and took out the city of New Orleans. Hurricane Katrina cost the United States taxpayer over $200 billion and all the bills are not in yet. In fact we can expect at least another $50 billion to make sure the levies are secured for the next big storm, which comes that way and another $50 billion because New Orleans is polluted and practically Superfund site. No one knows yet what the 2006 Atlantic tropical hurricane season will bring in the way of devastation and/or damage only that we can expect more of the same. Perhaps not a hurricane as big as hurricane Katrina in the level of damage caused but certainly one or more major Hurricanes that will affect our nation's budget. Luckily we have learned a lot about how to use our technology to pin-point in advance where the Hurricanes will strike and that saves lives, but as of yet we cannot stop Hurricanes from impacting our civilization and causing such damage. Meanwhile we wait and we watch for Hurricane Alberto to form and come charging in. Consider this in 2006. |
