Re: Back after a nice respite (for me)

Well, I saw that article some place else as well and I personally believe that it is a summary of what the scientists currently believe about weather cycles. But underlying the article is the attempt at putting the word out that the tourist industry should not feel so threatened by Florida's hurricane experience this year. Little do they know that even when a hurricane is coming you can not get the tourists to evacuate. They become fascinated by the storms and although they have a home to go to that is not in danger, they stay to watch the storms. So it is highly unlikely that our tourist seasons of the future will be harmed. They may have to work like the devil to get the hotels back up and running by next year though. This year is probably a wash at some of the beach side condos. But, by and large, most everyone is resilient and will survive this.
