Rumor has it that Joe R. may have mentioned these words:
> Well Hurricane Jeanne has come and gone. This is the fourth hurricane in
>6 weeks and the third that's gone through my area. The DEC and intel stuff
>sitting outside STILL hasn't blown away! Not too much damage this time, for
>the most part everything that could be torn up was destroyed in the
>previous storms. However my roof shingles are finally starting to go. The
>power companies are getting GOOD at this. This time they had the power back
>on the same day! I think there's going to be lots of houses (or vacant
>lots!) for sale in Florida real soon. I went to Home Depot this morning
>and it was packed with people buying roofing materials and other repair
>items. A lot of them also had "Home for Sale" signs in their carts!

Can ya blame 'em?

> I haven't heard from Glen. I know he was without power for five then
>seven days from the two previous storms and I think he's about ready to
>leave the state.

Hopefully he keeps in touch (when he can) -- Depending on how far north he
(or anyone here) is willing to go (read: Northern Michigan) I'd be willing
to lend a hand with moving/storage/whatnot... I have a truck (and seating
for 5) & uncovered 5'x10' trailer, straps, tarps, etc...
