*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 765 Views
This is nothing new. Qatar has had indoor ski slopes for years. *NM* damookster - 19/10/2019 11:32:07 PM 192 Views
cold air remains low to the ground or something? *NM* Roland00 - 19/10/2019 11:32:28 PM 193 Views
Right, but... surely an enclosed stadium would be more efficient. *NM* TyrReborn - 21/10/2019 10:49:37 PM 183 Views
Well, the city was built... fionwe1987 - 20/10/2019 09:48:37 PM 440 Views
Excuse Me? *NM* Roland00 - 20/10/2019 11:30:28 PM 257 Views
Yeah, I get that people don't want to move. But... TyrReborn - 21/10/2019 10:52:03 PM 364 Views
I think the extravagance is the point *NM* aerocontrols - 21/10/2019 11:51:53 PM 190 Views
Speculating here, but... fionwe1987 - 23/10/2019 09:45:23 PM 403 Views
Why is it always the Gulf Coast that gets complained about when we rebuild? Ghavrel - 23/10/2019 07:50:35 AM 409 Views
huh? aerocontrols - 23/10/2019 12:37:50 PM 388 Views
Re: huh? Ghavrel - 23/10/2019 08:52:29 PM 393 Views
That may simply be because earthquakes are less frequent than hurricanes, especially now *NM* fionwe1987 - 23/10/2019 09:46:47 PM 186 Views
They're less frequent, but we know where they're going to happen. Ghavrel - 24/10/2019 04:42:15 AM 408 Views
No one is sneering... fionwe1987 - 24/10/2019 02:05:19 PM 415 Views
You did use the word, idiocy. damookster - 24/10/2019 02:09:45 PM 431 Views
Fair. But I don't mean it at an individual level. I think... fionwe1987 - 24/10/2019 08:46:06 PM 457 Views
Re: huh? aerocontrols - 24/10/2019 06:01:36 PM 397 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 438 Views
Please read my 2nd paragraph again aerocontrols - 28/10/2019 04:06:32 PM 357 Views
Aerocontrols do you think Augusta Kansas should not exist? Roland00 - 24/10/2019 05:35:22 AM 398 Views
I think there's an argument to be made aerocontrols - 24/10/2019 05:50:26 PM 399 Views
But the Halloween flood of 98 was not like that Roland00 - 24/10/2019 06:41:28 PM 339 Views
Augusta flooded again last spring. aerocontrols - 24/10/2019 08:24:39 PM 405 Views
A little over sensitive? damookster - 23/10/2019 08:21:39 PM 377 Views
Very. I had enough of people blaming us for Katrina to last a lifetime. *NM* Ghavrel - 23/10/2019 08:53:44 PM 194 Views
to my point, however.... damookster - 23/10/2019 10:27:04 PM 406 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 396 Views
I guess my point damookster - 24/10/2019 02:03:08 PM 472 Views
Mookie why aren't you using the same logic about the California fires? Roland00 - 24/10/2019 07:53:19 PM 413 Views
because to the best of my knowledge, homeowners insurance in California is not unobtainable damookster - 25/10/2019 03:07:57 AM 423 Views
California Insurance for Fire is becoming a Market Failure Roland00 - 25/10/2019 06:35:28 AM 388 Views
As someone who *lives* in California Jeordam - 25/10/2019 04:38:49 PM 426 Views
Sigh you are missing my point I was saying about Scapegoating Roland00 - 25/10/2019 09:45:48 PM 465 Views
I didn't miss what you said.... Jeordam - 25/10/2019 11:35:23 PM 415 Views
Let me see if we are on the same page here. Roland00 - 26/10/2019 01:08:45 AM 412 Views
*nods* I knew what you were saying. Jeordam - 29/10/2019 09:53:30 PM 386 Views
Are you also calling me oversensitive Damookster for I had the same complaint? Roland00 - 24/10/2019 05:30:59 AM 379 Views
I was teasing Gabe. damookster - 24/10/2019 02:06:17 PM 368 Views
Sorry for misunderstanding Roland00 - 24/10/2019 06:43:36 PM 543 Views
You do realize that all of Qatar is desert? Legolas - 21/10/2019 07:53:24 PM 397 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 422 Views
Probably. For the stadiums, I thought they did do that, not sure about the markets... Legolas - 22/10/2019 05:57:11 PM 356 Views
Most of Antarctica is desert aerocontrols - 21/10/2019 11:51:04 PM 381 Views
