Truly. I *think* I started to notice before I posted and before that big earthquake, but yes, it would be interesting to know about any natural causes. People are so doggone self-panicking. And we know from experience that "natural causes" can be darned dangerous all by themselves without human help (or malfeasance). I don't think that excuses human error, understand, just that it's really not always all our fault! And it seems to me that a lot of people grab onto things to use as political input that just aren't appropriate because, humans are messed up, make no mistake about it. So I try to observe the facts on one hand, and what the silly humans do about them on the other -- it's instructive when you can find the doggone facts at all!
Posting as just me, not as the forum owner. Everything I say is "in my opinion" and YMMV -- which should go for everyone without saying.
