Volume XVII No.44: November 2, 2012

A few years ago it was Hurricane Ike that devastated Galveston, TX. In 2005 it was Rita, Wilma, and of course Katrina. But we could look further back at Hurricane Andrew in 1992, the Great Midwest Flood of 1993 and the Northridge earthquake of 1994. Clearly we could go on about the many disasters that occurred in between.
