We were supposed to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.usatoday.com\/weather\/research\/2007-04-09-gray-gore_N.htm\">get more hurricanes<\/a>. Then when it was shone that we weren&#8217;t getting more hurricanes, well then, we would get less hurricanes, but <a href=\"http:\/\/www.time.com\/time\/health\/article\/0,8599,1955838,00.html\">they would be bigger<\/a>. When it was shown that they are only bigger because we, due to modern technology that hadn&#8217;t existed in the past, <a href=\"http:\/\/news.nationalgeographic.com\/news\/2006\/07\/060728-hurricane-warming.html\">are measuring them more accurately than before<\/a>, and have shown that past hurricanes have been bigger than we could measure, then it became, &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.edf.org\/page.cfm?tagid=14044\">Oh, they are more costlier<\/a>&#8221; even though that has everything to do with an increase of more people living in hurricane prone areas, thus more damage to property, thus making the aftermath of the storms <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fivecentnickel.com\/2009\/06\/01\/the-high-cost-of-hurricane-insurance\/\">more costly<\/a> (I swear some scientist really need to go back to school and study economics).
