Here is my playing around a bit in Excel. Using this data that goes back to 1886; however, due to technological reasons, we start in the 1920's. As you can see, there is a significant trend going on here. Keep in mind we STILL HAVE the rest of this year and four more after that for this decade which has already had four category 5 storms. For all these wacko "Christian" fundamentalist out there who blame these natural occurrences on people who don't prescribe to their radical sect of Christianity, we can see that your God was not too pissed in the 1990's. Hell, Pat Robertson even claimed that he had the power to steer Hurricane Gloria away from his Virginia Beach, Virginia headquarters in 1995. There was only one Category 5 storm during Clinton's presidency, and it did not even touch American soil.
But then again, maybe I am looking at this all wrong. Maybe God is pissed now? Since Clinton left office, poverty, crime, unemployment, and abortions are up. Our country is partaking in a war in which the Pope called, "an unjust war." Hmmm, I will just blame it on the fact that the waters in the Atlantic and Gulf are 2 degrees above average. Oh that's right, silly me, there is no such thing as Global Warming, this data means nothing...
