Hey philosopher, good idea about building the house taller. but what good does that do when a 50 foot yatch sweeps it away, jackass. Its a hurricane, anything can happen. You must live in Nebraska shoob.

Especially when you don't even live here (Galveston).

Actually people did die. You need to check your information sources before making a blanket statment such as that one.

It was that bad the damage was like a cat 4. Galvaston, surfside and bolivar are no more

I live South of there in Corpus. I've had many relatives and friends through out the years that currently live or have lived in the Houston/Galveston area. In the early morning the storm made landfall and later that same day they were calling us telling us everything was fine.

do you live in Galveston?

they predicted 20-25 and it was 11 at Galveston. The highest one was 13.5 at Houston
I live in Galveston and totally understand. It's not that the Island is full of idiots or anything like that. If the media was more honest about what they cover then we might actually evacuate when we need to...but most of the time, about 70-80% (I am not exaggerating..) it either doesn't hit the place at all or did something totally different from what they were forcing down everyone's throats.
