Back From WILMA

We got our power back late yesterday. Considering 98% of South Florida was without power after Wilma and considering that they are saying it will be November 22 before everyone is back online, we consider ourselves to be very blessed!

Confucious say: If you don't have electricity you jump backward 150 years---no pumps, no gas, no oil, no lights, and no hot water for showers.

I would have to agree with that. We were, basically, camping out until the power came back. Still, many are without and the lines for gasoline are outrageously long--many stretching for miles!

Glad to hear you are back online Jay. I sent an email to you and Victor Milt didnt hear back but wondered if the email servers were screwed up too.
Lot of my colleges over there for the boat show said things are really a mess over there. The're rescheduling for the following weekend.
Hope You and you family are all alright.
Drop you another email in a day or too.

Did you get to have the "neighborhood barbeque" with the salvageable remains from your freezer? That's the part where you actually get to know your neighbors.

Seriously, good to hear that all is well with the responders here. Hope anyone who has not responded yet is well, also.

Makes you respect Mother Nature with all of her power. But the venerable question: "Did you get some good HD footage?"
