true, but for intelligent life you need a body and appendages. you need hands and fingers to manipulate your environment like humans use hands to make tools. other animals use flora to make nests and dams but the fact that they can't use their hands and fingers like us limits them.
in order to get to the high tech part of life you need body parts to manipulate your environment in low tech ways to make the tools and machines to allow you to progress in technology
just like in Star Trek where all the space faring races have body parts that allow them to manipulate objects
there was a big hurricane in 1938, 1815, 1893, 1860's. all Cat 3 hurricanes in NYC occurring before global warming. there are records of regular hurricanes going back to the 1600's as well. again, much more powerful storms than Sandy
the 1815 storm was so bad that it cut an island into two. the southern barrier island where Robert Moses State Park is used to be one island. THe Gale of 1815 destroyed part of it and its now two separate islands. it destroyed a few other smaller islands in the area as well.
NYC used to get hit by a hurricane every few years. the list is on wikipedia. the last 50 to 70 years it has been once a decade or so.
the 1938 hurricane was Cat 3 when it hit Long Island and moved at 70mph. It had 130 mph winds when it hit Long Island. Lots of other Cat 3 hurricanes hit New England in the last 300 years and did a lot more damage than Sandy. Sandy was barely a Cat 1 when it made landfall and moved at 15mph. the flooding was because it made landfall during a full moon and at high tide when the water is naturally a few feet higher.
Irene when it hit a few years ago was more powerful than Sandy but made landfall at low tide and there was almost no flooding
they have articles on hurricanes and there are records of storms going back hundreds of years. NYC used to get hit by a Cat 3 storm every half century and smaller storms every few years. Sandy was a Cat 1.
believe it or not the last 50 some years in NYC have been very lite on hurricanes. in the last few hundred years when it was colder the NYC area has had a lot more frequent and powerful storms than Sandy
