RE: The Dickson Fjord Landslide and Tsunami

The truth is that as much as we'd like to think we can predict and mitigate natural disasters, in the end they are unstoppable forces. Take the recent hurricane we had in Houston as an example. Don't get me wrong, it's always good to prepare and do what you can but nature is always going to have it's way.

Yes, not just Hurricane, now we are having strong winds like Jericho, and the downtown is shot for a month! Heights and Rice area trees are still being cleared, and we didn't even have a proper Hurricane went over us! If you factor that in, you would be building a bunker!

To think that Beryl was only a Category 1 is kind of scary. Imagine if it had been a higher level, the damage would have knocked out the city for weeks!

Yes, it was no Harvey or Ike. I am especially worries about our Power Grid and Internet. We didn't lose power, but didn't have internet (comcast) for 2 weeks.
