First the walls... then the Judges

Live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart. Trouble no one about his religion. Respect others in their views and demand that they respect yours. Love your life, perfect your life. Beautify all things in your life. Seek to make your life long and of service to your people. When your time comes to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song, and die like a hero going home.

Yep, they are called the Dutch, about half of them anyways.

n'oublie jamais - It appears I now have to highlight this again.

It is by tea alone I set my mind in motion. By the juice of the brew my thoughts aquire speed, my mind becomes strained, the strain becomes a warning. It is by tea alone I set my mind in motion.

Bitch please to you too, last year I lived about 30 foot from the sea in a basement flat that has since been entirely flooded.

I don't understand the "Bitch please" comment.

A good portion of New Orleans is under sea level.

Oklahoma by its nature is not below sea level. Its just really, really flat. Also please note Oklahoma is several hundred miles from the ocean.

Tornado country however extends from Texas through to Illinois. That doesn't include hurricanes and the occasional one off tornado from bad storms in other areas.

At least its not Southern California.

Read somewhere, quite some time ago, that real estate there above the dyke's level is significantly more expensive than the rest of it

If they did build the walls and it did stop tornadoes, I bet it would cause some other weather related problem elsewhere lol.

Not only is half our country under sea level, we claimed that land from the sea ourselves, we made thousands of square miles of land by draining the sea, hell, we even locked a small part of the sea inside of the country, because we can. One day Amsterdam will become Atlantis.

I LOVED the earthquakes! My first one was in my first week of college (maybe even the first day). Ifelt rumbling and thought a truck was going by. Everyone went screaming like girlie boys out the building, led by my (former) Iranian Professor. One second the building is full, the next second I'm standing in the middle of an empty classroom, in the middle of an empty building. I wander outside going WTF?

The best was a 5 pointer at night when I had a young pit bull. He leaped up and started running and leaping full speed around the house snarling/screaming and trying to bite the earthquake. Kewl.
