[at-l] Another Hurricane (OT)

Roks,

I can tell that you are a logical, weather-wise person and you are probably
already thinking about all these things, but I think that you (and Wench,
Kelly and anyone else near the southern coastal areas of FL and the keys)
should seriously consider evacuating those areas soon if the current
forecast path doesn't change.  Ivan is stronger than Andrew was when he hit
south Florida and he's bigger too.

BTW, I'm no wimp when it comes to hurricanes (or alligators, rattlesnakes
and other things in nature), but this hurricane could continue to kill
people wherever it hits (if it doesn't weaken significantly).  And, with
Florida's overpopulation problems, the major roadways become non-moving
parking lots way too quickly -- after everyone else also decides it's time
to get the heck out.  IMHO, protection of life should always be a higher
priority than concerns about property damage and other economic issues.
