Good Luck Florida

Howdy All,

I mentioned in the last email briefly, but thought I'd like to mention
clearly again, my wishes of Good Luck to the Floridans on the list. You
guys and gals have certainly had it tough of late, what with hurricanes
Charley, Frances and now Ivan on the way. They were saying here on the
news tonight that Ivan is a category 5 hurricane, so even worse than the
last two!! As far as I heard Charley was a category 4, but Frances was
downgraded to "only" category 2 by the time if hit Florida wasn't it?

Anyway, I am hoping that everyone is alright. Must be aweful just starting
to get cleaned up from one when the next one hits. From what the news said
this is not the normal way things work is it!! Far more hurricanes hitting
this season than usual? I ask as you just never know whether our news is
reporting it correctly or not <grin>.

Here's hoping that Ivan isn't as bad as they are projecting. Take care
everyone and please keep us posted on how you all fair. I know there are a
few of us on this list from Florida, so hopefully you can let us know how
you're going.

Thanks for taking the time to read this, and definitely best wishes to
those of you in the path of these storms.

Cheers.
