oh yeah?? I love reading about forgotten calamities. Apparently the 1901 Galveston hurricane was the single deadliest day in us history, which killed 12,000 people. wow! 145 mph winds and a 15 foot storm surge. I take living in the PNW for granted. we might have a giant mega fault off our shores but gulf coast folks roll the dice every year! id still live down there though. id just build a cement geodesic home on stilts! what do people do with their boats though. ive always wondered that....
