fair enough. I was derailing anyway.

Andrew was a CAT 5, hit S. Miami and has come back stronger than ever.

I give Miami another 2 centuries

You're much more optimistic than I am.
I don't give civilization much chance of lasting throughout the 2000's.

People have been predicting the end of the world and collapse of civilisation for at least the last six thousand years.

Civilisations certainly have collapsed in the past; But not civilisation in general. Humans are resilient. Having to abandon a few cities here and there isn't going to be fun, but it won't end civilisation.

True.

But the human race didn't use to have a population of 8 billion, the internet, nuclear(and worse) weapons, toxic environmental conditions, a rapidly changing climate, and a degraded biosphere to contend with.

Now we do. And we're little better able to deal with those challenges than EuroColonialists or the Africans who sold them African slaves.

Humans have always resolved issues with war. It's built into our mental processes. We're not that different from the ancients.

I'm in probably the best place in the world to get through the climate "apocalypse". Right in the middle of the largest bodies of fresh water in the world.

Suck it, bitches.

I didn't say it would be the end of the world. I said it would be the end of Miami. Gosh
