Nothing you said Nancy. Others truncated all comments on how Gary is
also missing. I objected and some got mad because I objected to
removing him from the posts on folks we should be worried about.

Tracking, 50% of my city has power again. Gary probably is not one of
the lucky ones. Jill probably isnt either (though well south of me).
Last track at noon, where I think Gary lives, might be as high as 1 in
5 roads you cant get out from other than foot.

Happened to me in 1999 or so. We neighbors gutted a tree across the
road to get out. The city later got mad as the crew was supposed to
remove the wood. We told them 'what crew'. The crew never arrived so
we had cut ourselves out 3 days later. It was 5 days before they got
to us. Another week before we got power.

Dunno how long Dataw will take. I wish Jill well. I wish Gary well as
well.
