*nods* I knew what you were saying. Jeordam Send a noteboard - 29/10/2019 09:53:30 PM

I was just pointing out that the cost of insurance is not attributed solely to risk factors that the customer is responsible for...

As for rebuilding where they were just destroyed...that's their decision. I'm not a big fan of someone else telling me what I can and can't do with my own money. This logically extends to someone else telling me (or a third party) that "they are too rich" or they have "more than they need". It is not up to someone else to set limits on success or to tell me what to do with my money.

Have y'all seen this? Qatar is air conditioning their open-air markets and stadiums. TyrReborn - 19/10/2019 06:06:47 AM 732 Views
This is nothing new. Qatar has had indoor ski slopes for years. *NM* damookster - 19/10/2019 11:32:07 PM 181 Views
cold air remains low to the ground or something? *NM* Roland00 - 19/10/2019 11:32:28 PM 184 Views
Right, but... surely an enclosed stadium would be more efficient. *NM* TyrReborn - 21/10/2019 10:49:37 PM 174 Views
Well, the city was built... fionwe1987 - 20/10/2019 09:48:37 PM 413 Views
Excuse Me? *NM* Roland00 - 20/10/2019 11:30:28 PM 248 Views
Yeah, I get that people don't want to move. But... TyrReborn - 21/10/2019 10:52:03 PM 336 Views
I think the extravagance is the point *NM* aerocontrols - 21/10/2019 11:51:53 PM 181 Views
Speculating here, but... fionwe1987 - 23/10/2019 09:45:23 PM 373 Views
Why is it always the Gulf Coast that gets complained about when we rebuild? Ghavrel - 23/10/2019 07:50:35 AM 380 Views
huh? aerocontrols - 23/10/2019 12:37:50 PM 358 Views
Re: huh? Ghavrel - 23/10/2019 08:52:29 PM 365 Views
That may simply be because earthquakes are less frequent than hurricanes, especially now *NM* fionwe1987 - 23/10/2019 09:46:47 PM 176 Views
They're less frequent, but we know where they're going to happen. Ghavrel - 24/10/2019 04:42:15 AM 373 Views
No one is sneering... fionwe1987 - 24/10/2019 02:05:19 PM 388 Views
You did use the word, idiocy. damookster - 24/10/2019 02:09:45 PM 379 Views
Fair. But I don't mean it at an individual level. I think... fionwe1987 - 24/10/2019 08:46:06 PM 428 Views
Re: huh? aerocontrols - 24/10/2019 06:01:36 PM 370 Views
That means we need to abandon places where millions of people live. Just in the US. Ghavrel - 28/10/2019 02:24:36 AM 411 Views
Please read my 2nd paragraph again aerocontrols - 28/10/2019 04:06:32 PM 329 Views
Aerocontrols do you think Augusta Kansas should not exist? Roland00 - 24/10/2019 05:35:22 AM 369 Views
I think there's an argument to be made aerocontrols - 24/10/2019 05:50:26 PM 344 Views
But the Halloween flood of 98 was not like that Roland00 - 24/10/2019 06:41:28 PM 311 Views
Augusta flooded again last spring. aerocontrols - 24/10/2019 08:24:39 PM 372 Views
A little over sensitive? damookster - 23/10/2019 08:21:39 PM 352 Views
Very. I had enough of people blaming us for Katrina to last a lifetime. *NM* Ghavrel - 23/10/2019 08:53:44 PM 184 Views
to my point, however.... damookster - 23/10/2019 10:27:04 PM 377 Views
I don't really know how that's relevant though. I'm not talking about insurance. Ghavrel - 24/10/2019 04:40:58 AM 366 Views
I guess my point damookster - 24/10/2019 02:03:08 PM 444 Views
Mookie why aren't you using the same logic about the California fires? Roland00 - 24/10/2019 07:53:19 PM 360 Views
because to the best of my knowledge, homeowners insurance in California is not unobtainable damookster - 25/10/2019 03:07:57 AM 371 Views
California Insurance for Fire is becoming a Market Failure Roland00 - 25/10/2019 06:35:28 AM 358 Views
As someone who *lives* in California Jeordam - 25/10/2019 04:38:49 PM 369 Views
Sigh you are missing my point I was saying about Scapegoating Roland00 - 25/10/2019 09:45:48 PM 418 Views
I didn't miss what you said.... Jeordam - 25/10/2019 11:35:23 PM 385 Views
Let me see if we are on the same page here. Roland00 - 26/10/2019 01:08:45 AM 384 Views
*nods* I knew what you were saying. Jeordam - 29/10/2019 09:53:30 PM 358 Views
Are you also calling me oversensitive Damookster for I had the same complaint? Roland00 - 24/10/2019 05:30:59 AM 353 Views
I was teasing Gabe. damookster - 24/10/2019 02:06:17 PM 340 Views
Sorry for misunderstanding Roland00 - 24/10/2019 06:43:36 PM 509 Views
You do realize that all of Qatar is desert? Legolas - 21/10/2019 07:53:24 PM 369 Views
What I was really commenting on is, wouldn't it be more efficient to enclose those areas? TyrReborn - 21/10/2019 10:51:00 PM 391 Views
Probably. For the stadiums, I thought they did do that, not sure about the markets... Legolas - 22/10/2019 05:57:11 PM 328 Views
Most of Antarctica is desert aerocontrols - 21/10/2019 11:51:04 PM 353 Views
