You posted this.....But I also don't care for the hunger for hype, and hunger for devastation.

You adjective is understandable....but perhaps replace "hunger" with fascination or awe....that's what it is. NO ONE wants a cat 5 storm. no one. (well, maybe a sado-masichist does...but I doubt there are any on this board...ha!

but it should teach mankind how puny he really is...and perhaps....how ineffective he is at governing and ruling himself. I mean, truthfully, if the hurricane hits Galveston, thousands will die....they know it...yet thousands will still die.

go figure....
