Today, NOAA said to expect winds of 5-10 knots in the morning and 10-15 knots
with gusts to 20 in the afternoon. Predicted seas of 2 -3 feet.

What we got was winds of 0 knots with gusts up to 2 knots and seas of about 3-6
inches.- Hide quoted text -

And maybe if we werent spending billions paying for a war and other
such BS, NOAA would have more staff, better equipment and more
accurate forcasting, the USCG would be be helping sailors not zipping
arround trying to catch some threat, oh... and a college iducation
woudnt bankrupt parents. Heck, we might even have continued Highseas
weather fax next year cause the CG has the needed money. THe money is
there. Its just about priorities.


Yesterday I saw a wind generator blade go down I-84. It was made in
VIet Nam as is the inner tube on my bicycle. We lost that war. It cost
billions, at least 53,000 american lives, and was the domino that
would cause the rest of the world to fall to the Red Tide.

All for what?

So we can have cheep innertubs 30 years later ?????? Do yo think we
would have cheep inner tubes if we won the war?
