    I'm sure a giant hurricane sweeping through the USA is a little more important that people's adsense?

    I would of thought that while it was passing places people might stay off there PC's which is understandable.

    I don't see how a hurricane can preven't users from around the world to click on banners... no matter how big it is, there are enough people around the world that don't even know what katrina is

    Yeah He's right. Don't worry, you'll still be able to click your own blog ads for the same amount of profit or more! Enjoy!

    If your traffic is coming from Louisiana or MIssissippi, you can bank that your traffic is going to be down.

    My fishing site gets a good deal of gulf coast traffic, and I have noticed the decrease.. millions of people without power and not even in their own homes.

    Your name "Grunt" has to do with number of posts you have made.. I think you have advanced from being a peon. :)

    Get off of your PC and take cover, man. You never know what might come flying though a window.

    Seriously, be careful and good luck!

    I think you'll ony be affected if most of your traffic comes from that area.
