Year of the Natural Disaster
This must be the year of natural disasters.
Here are a list of some of the major disasters within the past year:
Dec 2004: Tsunami:250K+ dead
Aug 2005: Katrina:Costliest Natural Disaster in US history
Sep 2005: Rita:$8-11 Billion in Damages
Oct 2005: Stan:Possibly 2k+ dead
Oct 2005: Kashmir Earthquake:20K+ dead
The next major (and possibly worst) calamity could be the avian bird flu, but lets hope that doesn't occur. The last major pandemic was the Spanish Bird Flu of 1918 which killed millions of people.
