>Isn't that the way it goes? Too many want to experience a hurricane UNTIL they actually DO and then it's NO MORE HURRICANES. Having been through 4 of 'em, I completely sympathize! I'm tired of replacing shingles, cutting trees, and cleaning up just to be able to drive out of the driveway afterwards! No electrical power during and afterwards is no joy either. The worst was Fran which sent a nice big pine tree into my car and went right through my rear window! Enough of that!
