3. Is this the fucking science channel?
You are ON THE INTERNET, fa-chrissakes!

Here's the first google link from your question:

http://cema.chathamcounty.org/hurricane/detailed_information.htm

That took two seconds, and wasted no DU bandwidth. Jeeezzzuuuss.

9. His FIRST question, before the edit
Edited on Thu Oct-02-03 10:22 PM by markses
was "How does a hurricane form? Please answer."

That's all; that was the whole post that I responded to.

After the edit (which was after my post), the rest was added, which - I agree - is funny, though I'm not sure it's meant to be. So, yes, haha, but that's not what I responded to.

19. I should have known, since it isn't at all like you
to jump right on one of Carlos' posts and make a nasty remark. What was I thinking?

28. I'll remember not to tread on the
rose petals you cast before his hallowed steps.

I'll also stand by my claim that the post before the edit was superfluous and could have been solved with a google search rather than a thread.

Or maybe I'll join the Cheswick hallelujah party, and start the following threads:

Why does it rain? Please answer.
How does gravity work? Please answer.
How do bees find flowers? Opinions welcome.

I suppose we could go on...:eyes:

7. Oh dear zeus! Do they have "Feelings"?
Carlos, please, please, get back on the work horse soon, this sort of musing is dangerous to a good mind like your own.

17. Well,of COURSE it has feelings!
Edited on Thu Oct-02-03 10:28 PM by SiobhanClancy
How can you even ask? Look at what your average hurricane has to go through:When it's just a teeny little helpless tropical low people are already gossiping about it. As it grows up,the vicious chattering only gets worse,until finally total strangers give it a name and start stalking the poor thing all over the ocean. This cruel harrassment lasts for the remainder of the life of the poor dear 'cane. Even worse,they send horrid airplanes to penetrate the private core of the hapless tempest,who may be saddled with a name like "Larry" when any fool can see she is a SHE. How would you like it???Wouldn't your feelings be hurt if it happened to you??

27. Well, it begins with an enormous stinking pile of elephant dung
The optimum hurricane conditions occur when the elephant shit has been piling up and stinking for two or three years - fresh, regular additions of dung add to the potential power of the hurricane.

A low-intelligence zone then forms above the steaming dung, rotating slowly.

Once the rotational pattern begins to strengthen, the low-intelligence zone also begins to strengthen, changing over time into a low-employment zone.

The low-employment zone produces a powerful spin, known for destroying livelihoods, public services and even entire small countries.

And once there's elephant shit all over everyone and everyplace, things REALLY get ugly!
