Mule, I don't wanna split hairs here but I am not aware of that many Cat4 storms hitting the US and not doing some serious damage to the structures in its path. I do agree that the building codes in FL used to be a lot less stringent and even more so in Homestead Florida in the late 80's early 90's (as was all of FL during that period because of the population boom and unreputable builders, which can be found even today). But building codes be damned, 140-145 mile per hour winds are going to do a lot more than knock over mail boxes so forth. Simply put, the average house in the US is not designed to do so well with 145 mph winds ripping it apart. But thats just my uneducated 2cents.

What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul!
