   For the good old days! Like 1925, when a tornado killed 700. Or 1931, when a flood killed a million or so. Or 1900, when a hurricane killed 10,000. Or 1888, when a blizzard killed 200 in NYC alone. At least back then, we didn’t have nut jobs running around, blaming you and me for bad weather.

   Great. You had to add that last little bit, and make me think of Barney Frank. Thanks.

   Is there no end to your vacuous whimsy? How long is a piece of string?

   I think you may find this Washington Post Blog item by Posted by Dylan Matthews quite a grim manipulation –

   “Hurricane Sandy has claimed casualties across the Eastern seaboard, with a death toll of at least 33 at last count. This, sadly, is part of a broader trend of increasing weather-related fatalities since the 1980s. While traditional weather-related dangers, such as lightning, have decreased in salience, heat waves and hurricanes are inflicting heavy casualties.”
   There then follows an interesting graphic.

     Interesting start date, at the very least. I would love to see the data used.

       My thoughts exactly, they must be properly Hansenized figures.

   They’re not really tails. They are more like USB cables… Cameron had to communicate ideas in ways that his target audience would understand.
