<reborn> 'The only time that there is a change in the list is if a storm is so deadly or costly that the future use of its name on a different storm would be inappropriate for reasons of sensitivity. If that occurs, then at an annual meeting by the WMO committee (called primarily to discuss many other issues) the offending name is stricken from the list and another name is selected to replace it.'
<Nittany_Tiger> I vote to insert Katrina back into the list.
<reborn> But they just explained it
<reborn> You can't go saying 'hurricane katrina will hit the us in 2012'
<reborn> People will panic and think it's coming back like a comet
<reborn> Americans you know, they'll always find some new way to surprise you
