Hemi, enlighten us as to why they can't be who they are 100 miles inland where they aren't in mortal danger every time a hurricane comes in.  Is that specific patch of land more important than the people?  Is that specific patch of land so important that people should die for no other reason than that they don't feel like moving?

So, anyone who lives on any south eastern coast is just being silly since they know that a hurricane could potentially hit them at any time and if an when that happens they should just abandom their hometown and forget about anything that ever went on in that town? I guess you should not live in a city where other people live when one of them could have a gun and could possibly blow your brains out when you could have easily moved out into the forest where no other people exist.

Welcome to the internet.  Of the many members who will read this thread, a very small percentage of them will actually make a post.

But not everyone you're talking about is living in a ---smurfing--- bowl, waiting to be drowned over and over again. The term "gluttons for punishment" comes to mind.

Agreed. I was a lurker here for MANY years before finally making a single post.

I can see your point, but the difference is negligible.
