Subject: Re: MI Hello from "FLoyd" State

Let's not forget our prayers for the folks in the Bahamas also.  Every year many of 
the small island-nations throughout the Caribbean get pummeled, but they don't make 
the big headlines.

If you are enjoying your favorite drink, with plenty of ice, imagine going for almost 
three months without electricity (no power for cooking, or pumping water or gasoline) 
and a newborn baby.  No income because the restaurant where you worked was blown
 off, and you have to wait for the owner to collect his insurance and come back to 
re-build (he is not a native of the island and waited a while until the 
infra-structure was sound in order to return).   This happened to a young woman from 
Anguila in
 1995 (back to back Hurricanes Luis and Marylyn).

I know the subject of the message is off-topic.  PLEASE don't interpret it the wrong 
way; just count your blessings.

Regards,

Miguel Iturralde

  We are lucky, so far in England not to suffer from hurricanes and tornadoes.

  But for you all out there, batten down those hatches and take care!
