We avoided the Apocalypse by going into exile.

Yes, we left the country and crossed the Ocean in July. And that's where we're staying for now. We left in order to avoid the pending catastrophe. Although we predicted it was more likely to be of a shadow-of-the-dark-side type thing, than a deluge. And we are saddened at the condition of the Gulf Coast. However, after living through the Tsumami-winter in Eastern New England, we are not particularly surprised that there was a hurricane. Yet we are stunned by the number of casualties and the fact that the Army Corps of Engineers simply wasn't given enough money to do its job.

More on the catatrophe soon.
