"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

The hurricane's outer layers are probably going to get to me while i'm in school, and they didn't close it... beautiful. The projected path pretty much ends where I live, too :p

I'd like to see that.  We had a so-called hurricane here once, but it was not all that exciting.  It knock over 15 million trees though...

I'm glad of the boring UK weather right now.

[color=66ff0]Yeah, it really irks me when people over here whine about it raining so much. I usually ask them 'when was the last time you had to evacuate your home due to a hurricane?'.

I find the weather here quite agreeable.

*watches the sky, hopes he doesn't get a tornado*

Georgia, especially western Georgia where I am, is hunkering down and hoping we don't get tornadoes (there's already been a warning farther south).

We're not in the storm path, thank God, just on the edges.  Good luck to everyone who gets caught in it and may whatever divinty you belive in watch over you.

Queers. You've never truly run a cross country meet until you do it in a thunderstorm.

The previous Hurricane, that wrecked Florida made it as far north as here in Southern Ontario Canada.  It dumped alot of rain on us and caused some local flooding.  No hurricane force winds or anything like that...but they can come pretty far in.

Southern Ontario has been historically been hit by one hurricane.  Called Hazel.  Before my time but it made its way, maintaing strenght, all the way into the great lakes area.

Yeesh, take a look at Ivan's maps on NOAA's site.  How often do you see a projected path that potentially takes it back out to sea?
