If he looks at page three, that should do the trick ;-)

Very poor - where's the "....and the worst is yet to come"? Shoddy
tabloid journalism not including that phrase.

To be fair, by Sun standards that article seems a model of restraint.

Whoever wrote that should be tied to a palm tree in the Caribbean just prior
to a real hurricane going through. They should then learn the difference.

Well, yes and no. The wind lashing at 75 mph or so would be the same on
a tropical island or a temperate zone one. The only difference (besides
the temperature) is the debris in the Caribbean is likely to contain
less plastic.

I can see I shall have to hold back on the logic in this group. (I
wonder if there is a brain fungus similar in principle to Botrytis
Cinerea and probably called Blue Peterarii.)

Wonders off to play with the big boys.
