ENOUGH of Hurricane Katrina. YES it was horrible & sad . SO was 9/11. Life goes on! Ever since Katrina every1 scared it’s "going to happen again". Does any1 hate how the media scares us. I live in Houston so I have an idea of what Hurricanes are too! I am so sick of hearing about a storm off the coast of AFRICA & people in Houston making evac. plans & stokcing up on supplies. I know you can’t be too careful but some ppl take it too far don’t you think?
Sorry Nicole

Sorry Nicole

I’m referring to people in Houston worrying about Gustav & I don’t need to hear about N.O for the 3001th time. Why does everyone mention New Orleans when it comes to Katrina? What in the HELL about Mississippi?
Does anyone know where California Earthquake chips can be found in Phx Arizona? Please let me know!?
They taste amazing & have only seen them in vending machines out of town haha
Some insurance companies won’t pay out because they say “it was an act of God” you could ask them?
Do you believe in God?
Can you prove that God was responsible for this disaster?
———————–
God hasn’t caused the earth ozone layer to shrink, or the atmosphere to become polluted, or the trees to be destroyed. Do you know who is responsible for all the earth disasters.
Even some Catholic Cardinals say "its an act of God" To illustrate: While visiting San Pedro Sacatepéquez the Friday after the quake a man pawing through the remains of his home dejectedly told me: “This is punishment from God, because we have been very bad people.”
Where, you may wonder, did he and many others of these humble hardworking people get such an idea? The next day it became apparent. The Catholic Cardinal of Guatemala, Mario Casariego, said, as quoted in the country’s principal newspaper:
“In these moments of great calamities to the people, the teaching of the Holy Scriptures comes to mind: God loves and because he loves, he corrects, sets straight and awakens. . . . Haven’t we resisted so much that we have obligated God to work in this way?” Then he added that helping to rebuild the Cathedral and other destroyed churches would “be the symbol of an authentic and personal return to God.”—El Imparcial, February 7, 1976, page 6.

Do smaller earthquakes postpone bigger ones?
Now that the 5.4 has happened in L.A., does that lessen the change of the "big one" happening sooner rather than later? Due to the fact that this one let out some steam and relieved some of the pressure/tension? Or no?
Sorry, I meant "chance" not "change"
Can i have some feedback and/or more ideas added to my Disaster Relief Plan?
I’m VP for the Red Cross Club at my school & i was trying to think of something we could do to raise money for the Hurricane Relief project. National Red Cross wants to raise over 1 million dollars by December 1st. So we want to contribute to that. We have a band at your High School that usually performs locally so i was thinking we set up a gig for the band and have them play to raise money but i also wanted to add activities while the band is playing, but i couldn’t think of anything. Does anyone have any ideas? Also, if this project happens, i was thinking of naming it "Rock the Relief"
Do you ever wonder if other countries help to donate to the US? Why are we always donating to other countries?
Yesterday, I saw many signs & boxes about donating food & school supplies to places, like Africa & Honduras. But do other countries do that for us when our country is struggling? I understand that those are poor countries, but I’m just curious.
People cared more about the tsunami in Asia than they cared abut Hurricanes Katrina & Rita. Why is that?
Yeah. That’s what I’m saying. People here in the US didn’t care about the disasters of their own country.
Hurricane Ike Preperation..?
I have a few questions, I live in the upper-west section of Houston, TX (Harris County for those familar with the area) & Hurricane Ike is expected to make landfall within the next few days, & I have a few questions.
1. What supplies should we buy?
2. Should we evacuate (By we, I mean my mother, sister, age 9, and two dogs) to Baton Rouge, LA, which is where all of my family lives.
3. We live in a two story home, which floor is safer?
4. What are the best non perishable foods?
5. My school is a mainly outdoors campus, with portable buildings, any chance of them blowing away? With expected 130 – 140 mph winds, I would suspect so, but I am no expert.
Thank you, most in depth answer gets a simple ten points!

California Earthquake?
There was a 5.0 EQ & a 4.1 today in Ca
I heard thers gonna be a really big one soon & I heard theres gonna be be a big EQ tomorrow.
Is that true?
How big will it be?
When will it be?
So is Global warming producing: Earthquake jolts Los Angeles area, Salt Lake City Utah?
As well as the Major Quake in Indonesia and the one that hit Mexico ALL in one week…
What is going to take for people to understand that being an OStrich is not going to make this world better….Maybe I sound like the Doomsday preacher, but actually I truly want everyone to get thier heart right with GOD and realize MAN cannot control everything in life and the bigger picture is GOD and having people depend on him not Man for a better world, a world we will all be laughing never arguing and debating on the Yahoo R&S Site again…
Won’t that make you happy?

Inflatable disaster-free shelter…Genius or Dumb?
http://blog.wired.com/wiredscience/2008/11/inflatable-hous.html?npu=1&mbid=yhp
This article basically says that there is a new product on the market that basically is a bouncing room house. Its shaped like a small cube that can be used as a safe shelter for disasters like hurricanes, earthquakes, etc.
The only problem is that there are many people who are claustrophobic who would not be able to last long in this thing.
What do you think?
What do you think of these pictures???
I asked this Q in R&S but I’m asking it here too, to see what you guys think.
Here are pictures of mosques that are still standing after natural disasters like earthquakes and tsunamis. In my opinion I think it shows the power of God right in front of our eyes. Some people say that these buildings are built from strong materials but there is a mosque made of wood that survived whilst everything else was destroyed.What are your thoughts?
