Good article: ...The phenomenon is referred to at FEMA as hazard amnesia, South says. “One day the trailer park blows away. People say they’ll never move back. But three days later, the trailer park is filled. If I were king, I’d say, ‘You don’t build in hurricane country unless you build up to the standards of a dome."
It aint "harzard amnesia" it's "can'taffordbetteritis". It's patronising and arrogant for
FEMA (who's mental skills are nothing to write home about) to suggest that the
poor are dumb because they don't do what FEMA wants them to do. As for what
you would do if you were king, it sounds like there'd be a lot of people living in
cardboard boxes in your kingdom.

Beautiful high end domes:
http://www.domeofahome.com/DomeHome_sun-sentinel.pdf - The bottom of this has pictures of where/what happend to this home in a category 3 hurricane. The stairs and landscaping are gone, but the house is still there. Their neighbors houses are totally lost.
