It's another reason that while I may agree more, philosophically with Democrats, I hate them because they do fuck all about it.  Why aren't they marching in the streets demanding our government move on cleaner sources of energy?  We have people in congress apologizing to BP for "shakedowns" and people just sit there, shake their fist at the TV, and then nothing.

I keep seeing references to Bush and Katrina.

Which decade are we talking about?

A decade can mean any arbitrary span of 10 years, not necessarily XX00 to XX09.
In this context, "this decade" probably means 2001-2010.

Well, fuck that.  That means that "the 30s" began in 1931, and 1930 was part of the 20s.

That's just fucking retarded.

I really just meant the last ten years or so.

The "Summer of the Shark" when, in the Summer of 2001, unprovoked shark attacks were actually lower than average, but the media, bored with having nothing to report, decided to hype up the few that had happened and pass it off as a sudden outbreak of shark attacks.

Because, you know, we were desperately in need of something to be afraid of.
