Ok, I know its not tech related but I just seen this article and thought to share. I found it by clinking advertisement. THen an advertisement on and advertised page etc. 27 links deep I found this.
| Quote: | MIAMI (Reuters) - Nine months after the first of three hurricanes crisscrossed central Florida and stranded residents in their darkened homes, hospitals throughout the region are reporting a baby boom, the Orlando Sentinel said on Tuesday.
Halifax Medical Center in Daytona Beach has seen 25 percent more deliveries than a year ago and pregnant women flocking to childbirth classes there all tell the same story.
"There was no electricity, they were spending a lot of time at home, there were candles and -- I'll leave the rest up to you," Halifax spokeswoman Kate Holcomb told the newspaper.
Some women said hurricanes Charley, Frances and Jeanne and their aftermath made it difficult for them to reach their pharmacies for birth-control pills.
Florida Hospital, one of the region's largest hospital groups, has seen a 26 percent increase in births at its Winter Park Memorial since May 20 compared with the same period last year and an 18 percent spike at its downtown Orlando campus.
"We've got our catcher's mitts on," said Jan Wagner, a registered nurse in Halifax's labor and delivery department. |

Do to the fact that I live in florida. In a rural area. I went 2 days with no power on one huricane. Then 6 days on another huricane. And we had a generator. Most people round me dont. As you can imagine I had fun. With friends. However I am lucky. I made it to CVS before they lost power.
However my friend just had twins yesterday. And then I seen this article and made me think about it and laph.
Also what this means. In twenty years when I am an old man. There will be a plethera of gold diggers who will be willing to date me. HeHe.
