ITT RHODE ISLAND IS A LAKE NAO, THANKS PIX.

::cough:: Statistics.

We MAY get hit with it in a lifetime.  May get none, may get 5 in 5 years, or 5 in a row.

You are correct though that it bodes better infrastructure, people take too short a view.

That's just fucking dumb.  Even if its a once in a lifetime deal, that still means you *will* get hit with it in your lifetime.

Want to move here and do something about it then?

Dude, RHODE ISLAND. Unless someone is making a buck off of it, then no one cares.

Warwick Mall from the air:

I FOUND DEMO! HE'S ALIVE!!

[Suu]

Woo!


Also, see that mall? That's where Herb works. Richter works on the other side of 95 closer to the airport, apparently he got word there's 4ft of water in his building.

Hahahahahaha ahhhh....This is just what Rhode Island needs right now financially. I'm getting cabin fever so bad I'm starting to giggle randomly over this shit now, cause I'm swimming to Boston tomorrow, Spags.




Now taking bets on how long it will take FEMA to come in and try to "help".  I do think the National Guard is already here though.

you need an oar, a bottle of liquor, a pirate hat, and an inflatable chair.

[Jenne]

State of emergency was declared...yesterday?...hopefully that means some help for you guys, Suu...hang in there...

GS's dad just came in from Warwick. He said the National Guard is useless and that FEMA announced that if people need help, they can apply for it.

Meanwhile, I'm glad my tax dollars are going to Haiti and Chile.

I hope I don't have to explain that return period is not equal to "flood of this size occurs ever 100 years", that it really means the probability of recurrence is 1/100th a year.

In other words, no it doesn't.

Edit: I see Richter already elucidated this.

Also, holy shit water.

[Suu]

Yep. The mall is done for. Just heard it on the news. It will take a month if not more to clean it up, then they'll see if it's even worth reopening.
