Growing up in Mobile, we did not have the highest respect for the power of Hurricanes. I have n idea why, but hurricane parties were common. You may have heard about the large number of revelers who perished in the 1969 storm, Camille.

Since we all pay the expense of flood insurance and building new roads and public facilities, it seems like a "no brainer" that the feds need to step in and stop development in dangerous places.

Don't we ever learn anything?
