I understand that the bulk hit well south, but then again, I was watching news last night, and they were showing damage to fruit picker's homes in Arcadia, which is inland AND well north of the most damaged areas. St. Pete and Pinellas didn't get anything. Arcadia is NE of Charlotte Harbor, where the storm came ashore. As the storm was heading NE, Arcadia got slammed. bb That's a shame, there are a lot of poor working people in that area. There are lots of "illegal" farm workers who were horribly impacted by the hurricane, and who are without housing, food, or water, and were it not for Catholic charities and a couple of similar groups, these folks would be dying by the side of the road. This is an amazing country. We have all sorts of work that native-born Americans won't do, so we import tens of thousands of poor workers from even poorer countries to do it for us. Then we treat those workers like ****. Welcome to America. As a society, we're no better than we treat the poorest and least able among us. -- Save America - Defeat Bush!
