Female-named hurricanes kill more than male hurricanes

Female-named hurricanes kill more than male hurricanes because people don’t respect them, study finds.

The study is in the Washington Post, but I am unable to put the link here.

LOL...I have always wondered why Mother Nature hasn't kicked all of our asses for good years ago...we are sucky guests in her magnificent home.

I believe when the world ends it will be down to mother nature rather than anything else!

Living near Houston, the last one who did us wrong was "Ike". But all he did was make it a little windy, a little rainy, and a little hot since he broke the damn AC!

Anyway, here's the link for you: http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/capi...udy-finds/. Be warned, some of this might just be Washington's frustrations about how Sandy hurt them.

What I want to know is, who exactly finances these studies? With all of the serious issues in this world, do we give a rat's ass about some lame-ass thing like this? Personally, I have the utmost respect for women's powers of destruction - you should meet my mother lol -
Seriously, though - I'm aware that women are often underestimated, and it's pretty bogus. When I'm up against it, there are a couple women on my job that I would hope were there and had my back. because

...because? Lol some of my replies get poster, some don't, and some just cut off like the above. Forum Gremlins...??
I was gonna say, because these are take-charge women who I would literally trust with my life.
