[edit] Archiving
Just a little helpful reminder: When you archive stuff, please remember to add a link to the archive page. I about had a heart attack when I went to the Pacific page and it looked like the entire discussion had vanished. Thanks. -- SkyFury 04:56, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
- That is weird. I am absolutely SURE I put the link up. Thanks for the reminder; I can be absent-minded at times. IP 13:25, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Thanks
Thank you for the welcome. And about what you said, I hope so. Also, thanks for the reference pages, but being sincere I don't know what OSEI means. I'll be very greeted if you answer me this question. Cheers. Hurricane at 870 mb 22:05, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Hall
(laughs) Yeah, I know where it is; it's on my computer. I made it up. That's why I called it my Hurricane Hall of Fame. I started it a while back thinking it would be cool to have a tropical "Hall of Fame" for especially notable storms. Now I run it like a real Hall of Fame with annual inductees. There are ten nominees each year with four or five getting in. Me and a friend of mine on Wikipedia (Hurricanehink) decide by consensus which ones get in. The entries look like this:
Categories 1 & 3 at landfall
Hispaniola/Florida-September
4th hurricane to hit Florida in 6 weeks. Killed over 3,000 people in Haiti.
All in Impact font and color coded per peak intensity (TS=Light Blue, Cat.1=Dark Blue, 2=Pink, 3=Orange, 4=Hunter Green, 5=Red). It's 18 pages long, and that's not counting the "Category 5 club" and the "Legion of Retired Names". The artistic little one liners at the bottom (Ex: Shown here is Hurricane Jeanne who was given "Misery". Katrina: "From Hell", Allen: "God of Fury") Those examples aren't my best ones. I'd have to hunt for those. I give one to each storm from every basin. And each storm in my image archives of each basin get one, so I've made up creative phrases for probably close to 300 storms. Yeah, I don't have much of a life outside of school. But these fun little projects feed my creative nature and my passion for hurricanes at the same time. I think what I've compiled over the past three years is pretty remarkable (if I do say so myself). The Hurricane Hall of Fame is just one of many. -- SkyFury 00:25, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
- Do you know how much of a hassle it would be to set up a 26-27 page document in HTML? I'm sure I could create a page off my userpage in Wikipedia, but I can't get the Impact font and I'd have to set up all the colors. I've just never found the will power to do all that and I can't see many people reading it. -- SkyFury 17:24, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

You'll love this. I present to you The Hall of Fame. I spent three weeks on this. It's perhaps the greatest piece of nonfiction writing I've ever composed. page 2. -- SkyFury 01:17, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
