hate to say it hit those who deserve it more hardest but it kinda did.

hard to not compare it to some sort of judgement by god.

in a practical sense the rich and ignorant bought into poor setup.

the common man seems to have invested where it matters.

we were warning them long enough but they didn't listen.

see what happens when you ignore professionals for a quick buck.

there are places made of palm leaves looking untouched.

all the concrete stuff is jumbled about like a broke jigsaw.

still, i don't wish what happened on anyone.

just hard not to judge people who punch women and children just to get to the front of the line of the rescue effort.

so sure i kicked that sucker in the face.

they were gonna capsize us, so it's a reasonable response.

damn it felt good to do that though.

sucks that we left some kids behind because officials said we had to save the rich people first.

if those kids die, i'm going to go full vigilante and put the fear of god in the minds of my 'betters'.

at least that way i'd be satisfied, and the blame would all be on me, the guy they already don't like.

i'd get kicked out of the station too, so my colleagues wouldn't get the flack for it.

hypothermia is the biggest threat right now.

FEMA won't send us any more aid, said that the disaster relief is over, while the place is still full of water and there's no houses.

i don't care if i get a black mark on my record, i'm gonna keep going as long as i'm able.

"contempt" is what they call it. that's rich.

what do you call the people who leave hundreds to die? apparently 'heroes' according to the media.

you know, when the heat comes in, this is gonna be a breeding ground for parasites.

2 days, that's all the US can afford.

what the hell does that mean?

we've got a boat, we've got men working here. what does it cost you other than time?

what is that manpower doing right now? just sitting in a fancy warm apartment in a comfy bed?

get off your ass and help someone. we're dying out here.

A new research report is adding another piece to a larger scientific puzzle, and the important part is not the drama of the finding but the practical work it could make possible. For readers, the useful question is what the research changes: whether it gives scientists a cleaner measurement, a better tool, or a result strong enough for other teams to test.
