Default RE: Ike Aftermath

Well, maybe we don't have gas. Stations open when a tanker comes. A long line forms. It might take you 5 or 6 hours to fill your tank. Then the gas runs out and the station closes. Deliveries are unreliable.

No FEMA PODs to see or hear about. Food might be getting scarce soon for many. Most people are without power. Folks with water might have sewage backups. Power to the ground water pumps before power to the sewage treatment facilities.

Debris is still everywhere. Most streets are passible. No traffic signals. Most phone service is out. Cell phones don't work in many places. People don't have a way to charge them anyway.
