Interesting how the headlines scream “disaster” repeatedly over hundreds of incidents more than a hundred years –
BUT –
in the enlightened 21 st century the incidents are now “unprecedented” !
Do they really think we are that dumb or lack memory beyond last Tuesday ?
Nice pristine, squeaky clean weather disasters. So different from the filthy, dirty weather disasters of today, all caused by white males.
