  - oh the utility company is going to get destroyed. They had down power lines that might have caused the fire -- nm - Remlik Aug 17, 13:51 5
    - i mean, if they blocked the roads when people were evacuating, it's beyond criminal. - Andie Aug 17, 14:02 4

        I guess the sirens are considered tsunami warnings and they were afraid people would move inland towards the fire rather than to the ocean. - Meg Aug 17, 14:40 2

From b2: It’s extremely unlikely another A-named storm will be like Andrew if simply because detection has advanced immensely since 1992. -- nm - Qale Aug 17, 12:39 4
- It wasn’t that the detection was at fault…it was just a monster. We knew days in advance it was going to be a monster. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 17, 14:19 2
  - You misunderstand. If we had the better detection in 1992 as we did now, Andrew wouldn't have been Andrew, it'd have a much later lettered name. -- nm - Qale Aug 17, 14:59 1

- the worst Democrat Senator in a generation. -- nm* - Jovian Aug 17, 12:09 9
  - Worse than Tricia Cotham, the one in NC that switched parties? Oh wait, she wasn't a Senator. She was just a traitorous ass-hat. -- nm - sycor Aug 17, 12:19 5
    - in my eyes, she's akin to a Benedict Arnold. - Jovian Aug 17, 12:21 4
      - Yeah Tricia decided to switch parties because her feewings were hurt. Gave the GOP super majority in NC. - sycor Aug 17, 12:30 3
        
        it's since come out she was was urged to run in the first place by state GOP -- (link) - hollywood big shot Aug 17, 13:10 2
