Reaction to Hurricane

Well we had our own hurricane last week, and it was a letdown (in a good way - nothing serious.)
However, Texas hasn't been so lucky with Hurricane Ike.
The storm looks like it devestated many of the cities and although the amount of people that have officially been dead because of the storm is still low, which is a good thing, the amount of damage is ridiculous. I'm curious to see what they are going to come out with the actual price range on Tuesday.

It is a eerie reminder of Hurricane Katrina when it hit New Orleans. The storm wasn't dealt with for days, weeks, months later. However, it being Texas, Bush's homestate, the storm relief is already planned for tomorrow and Tuesday, not including who has been there since the storm was going on.

It also is super suprising to see the amount of people that stayed in their homes, even after the many evacuation warnings. It really annoyed me to find one man that stayed in his home, even after authorities risked their lives to get to him to get him out. I understand if you want to be with all your belongings and those that believe it is there time to go, but when someone comes out pretty selfish like that, when other people's lives are on the line, it's a sick darn world.
