Re: [WISPA] Thanks to those concerned
To all affected in Northern AL. I know often the supplies run short in an affected area, I am coming over 72, then across through Fort Payne in about 4 hours. If there is anything I can stop in Memphis to get and bring to you, please let me know and I will do so. I will be in a large pickup with very little onboard. I will be checking this list for mail. Don't take your organs to heaven, heaven knows we need them down here! Be an organ donor, sign your donor card today. WISPA Wants You!

[WISPA] Thanks to those concerned
Our network admin's house, Marlon Williamson who is active on these lists, was completely demolished with him and his family inside. I went by there today and it looks like a war zone. Complete destruction a half mile in each direction with what was his house in the middle. Across the road some people were found dead lying in a church parking lot and nearby field. A Sara Lee truck pulled up today in a small town called Henagar at the 4 way stop, opened the 18 wheeler doors, and you would've thought it was a third world country watching the people rush to get bread. Somehow our network was left unscathed. I drove to most of our sites today, all in tact. One water tank may have some lightning damage in the cabinet but not much it seems. We were truly blessed. We've been without power for over 24 hours. All of N. Alabama is without power. People are lining up at gas stations thinking the power is going to come on but the TVA has given a best case scenario of 5 days. Judging from the damage I've seen, it will be more like 2 weeks. High Voltage lines have been twisted and blown over like pretzels all over the county. Jay, I haven't had time to read any emails, but if I can be of assistance I will try.
