1. I can tell you it was scary to live through here in Brooklyn.

2. New Yorkers used to be known as the types to see a manhole cover explode out of the street,..

...and say, "heads."

4. A hurricane

lasts a day, sometimes two days. It is something like being under bombardment for that whole period of time. Imagine the worst thunderstorm you ever lived through and imagine that going on for two days, and always with the threat of tornadoes. That strikes fear into everyone, even New Yorkers.

5. Maybe it needed to happen to discredit the global warming deniars.

6. I doubt it would change their minds any.

Stupidity is hard to cure.

7. Doesn't have to....

It just makes everyone look at them as the idiots they are.

3. Anyone else notice

that they cut to a Dunkin Donuts in the midst of Gov Christie's speech (at 0:52)?

Either it's an unfortunate edit, or someone's got a macabre sense of humor.
