hmmmm.... 80,000 plus visitors. WOW - that seems like a pretty heavy-duty process to get 'em all out.

I remember Killian :grr: Used to love the barn and farm areas, back then they still had holsteins roaming in what now is the middle of town, and there was nothing but swamp west of the 826. HML '81 :P

Exactly! That's why I'm more concerned now that I know they've got a mandatory evac order for ALL those people. Like I've said before, they usually just do a partial evacuation so it's not everyone. They've got to be expecting this thing to evacuate all 80,000+ IMO....

Believe me, there will be a stalwart group that refuses to leave.

I was born there, have a stubborn streak, and doubt very much I would leave either.
