Same here, John...I'd be scared as the dickens, too, if I lived out that way!

Those peeps may not get much if any rest tonight...

[Josephine96]

I remember the lack of rest I got after being awakened from a sound sleep in 98.. That was bad.. I even still have an occasional nightmare around the anniversary of the outbreak.

{will stop talking about 1998 if you guys are getting sick of it }
