| User | Dalja | | Topic | Natural Disaters | | Message | Katrina knocked me out of my hometown. Rita nearly knocked me out of my new home. My friend once said that the South was the safest place to live because we can always see a hurricane coming and flee in time. Now that that theory has been disproved, is there truely any safe place to live on this Earth? |

| User | mae | 2005-09-29 | | | Subject | untitled | | Message | My husband and I were discussing this the other day and decided that we live in the safest part of the United States (I don’t know about the whole earth). We live in the extreme northwest corner of Washington State. The average high temperature here in the summer is 71 degrees; we don’t get hurricanes or tornadoes; we have thunderstorms, but not usually severe ones; we have the occasional earthquake, but since the faultline veers out under the ocean, we don’t get them like California does. And in Western Washington, we have NO poisonous snakes. This is the BEST place to live. mae |
