The Friday File: While Atlantic hurricane names have alternated between the sexes since 1979, it turns out hurricanes with women’s names are much more deadly. While names don’t matter for low-damage hurricanes, for high-damage storms the more feminine the name the more deadly the storm! People just don’t take hurricanes with women’s names as seriously! Maybe offer naming rights to firms and for bad hurricanes use names of disgraced politicians.
