Subject: RE: BS: Why build cities in path of hurricanes?
Just as well I do not claim to be a meteorologist then!!!!
I suspect stevie boy that if I adopted you and your approach as a role model and a modus operandi then I would have spent the vast bulk of my time unemployed. I cannot envisage you being a subservient team player, as is required at times in the real world. I think your career as a consultant would be shortlived if your persona displayed on this forum in any way approaches your behaviour in the real world, for reasons that must be apparent even to you.
Of course I could be totally wrong, but experience in many companies suggests otherwise.

Having spent several months right beside Hinkley it does seem rather vulnerable,   but that was 25 years ago so it may have been hardened since.
