Storm Now, Baby Boom Later?

Gothamist Weather noticed a story I linked to a couple of days ago about hospital workers claiming a summer baby boom was a result of Hurricane Isabel. Gothamist posted an insightful reply to the article here … So, do you think some localized baby booms are the result of natural disasters … or even a night or two without power, or is it most likely just a myth?
