I've been listening to the coverage, on "The Today Show"----IIRC, they said 6 million people have been evacuated from south Florida, more than 800 thousand are without power, and Irma has gotten as far north, as Polk County.....

We need y'all to let us know, please, that you're okay!!

Everybody else: If you're the prayin'-type, and haven't already, please send-up a prayer for our WP members----it's BAAAAAD, out there!! If you're not the prayin'-type, please do whatever it is, that you do to send protection / good vibes / peace / whatever, to Florida.

I heard on the news that there are now over 7 million people, without power----and, that it could take WEEKS, to be restored.

I hope they stocked-up, on MREs:
