this IS NOT AN "EVENT"!
THIS ISN'T EITHER!

Sorry, dick sucker .... most of the people I know got flooded off their farms, out of their businesses, and from their homes.This will give you another thread to bump Richard smoker.
I'm still helping some folks who have no electricity, but still have their homes and are able to survive in them with small children. My office building took water in the first floor, but the equipment, furniture, and records were secured by elevation.
I'm monitoring one on an rescue effort right now and periodically checking on the residence of an EMT who is working some long hours .... I have bought food and supplies for others. We can do that because I know how and we have vehicles that will get through the "wet spots"!
When things get settled down and the "shine is gone" we will assist with the evacuees at the shelters just like we did for Katrina refugees.

So the next time you attend a "concert" remember: Harvey.
Granted the "word" fits the dictionary definition, but so does a Texans' game. It avoids the breadth and scope of the catastrophe and marginalizes it by putting it on the same level as a concert. Originally Posted by LexusLover

But with people and property in it's wake it becomes catastrophic and this Hurricane was catastrophic in the highest sense of the word. I understand your point. It's only an event until your faced with it. The sad thing is we'll see another one quite similar much sooner than later in a different location of the U.S.
How many times have you heard "event" in the past week?
It's like "skill set" ... how many times have you heard that recently?
It's a "trendy" reference to an epic catastrophe that marginalizes it.
"Skill set" doesn't adequately and accurately identify natural talent based on mind and body coordination. Originally Posted by LexusLover
