Just thought I would share that National Geographic has a great article about Hurricanes and the continued recovery from Katrina in this month's
Issue.

Great reading-until Football season starts!

I read through that a couple of weeks ago. It was very interesting.
I think there was one thing wrong though: The page with all the graphs and charts, one of them plotted the number of Atlantic hurricanes of category four or higher, the number was at 41 for '70-'74 and 72 for '00-'04.

Otherwise everything in the article was fascinating and informative.

Just starting to dive into those articles. I was excited to see the cover when it arrived in the mail. If you want to read the articles you can visit these links at National Geographic. Of course you don't get all the great pictures and captions but still are able to read the articles. :D
