flawed judgment

I tried to get through the interview, but I found myself so irritated with these guys that I stopped. A lot of talk about huge waves and they didn't seem to get the fact that their decision was wrong. I am not an arm chair type, but if you didn't know this storm was coming, then you lived in a parallel universe. I live on Maryland's eastern shore, and all the local weather people were predicting it. Even a short look at, say, channel 11 in Baltimore, would have shown this thing coming. And there is no question: it was one of the more severe nor'easters I've seen. I didn't look at all of the interview, but did these guys think to thank the Coast Guard? Just my rant.
