All went smoothly (as planned), and I didn't have to count of FEMA for
anything. Had I been completely flooded out, things may have come out
differently. But flooding wasn't a problem on the other coast either, and
they still ended up with problems.

Congratulations on a job "well done". If everyone would have followed
your example of "being prepared" there would be no problems. I simply do
not understand, that will all the warnings given, that a lot of the people
would not be as prepared the way you were. I guess it just shows how
stupid and ignorant some people are. They must think that it can't happen
to them. Only "others" get hurricane damage so why bother to stock
supplies. Right?
