I was talking with some friends today .. and we got to talking about Hurricane Rita
and the evacuation process ..
Why in GOD'S name do they NOT open the south bound lanes, in such a crisis?
As I was watching the news last nite, I saw that they finally opened the south bound lanes,
but far too late IMHO ..
I told my friends that evacuation procedures need to be done by the Military ..
as the experiance they have with *bugging-out* is unsurpassed .. Its seems that
the local communities, have no clue in how to handle the tasks that are before them,
as we've witnessed with the last two Hurricanes ..
I just saw the news of the bus that exploded, and man .. the ball sure was dropped big time!
The driver had a Mexican license, and the company was under *scrutiny* as it was.
Whats it gonna take .. for our Government to wake up, and do things properly ..
in a professional manner .. to ensure the safety of our own people .. I also saw that there were
sooooo many people stranded on I-45 .. that simply *ran out of gas* ??? WTF ???
The stations up ahead, and behind the mass exodus, were already dry on fuel ..
Sorry fawkin ass planning .. not only by the people leaving .. but by the politicians, and
local authorities of TX .. I just now, (after saying that evacuations should be Military coordinated)
have heard on my local news, that .. they are talking about doing just that, in the future.
Imagine that .. well .. someone's reading my mind .. and Val .. we're glad that you're in Abilene,
and far, far away from natures harm .. here's to hoping that the loss of life, and property
is held to a strict minimum.. and may God be with TX this weekend ..
A Hui Hou !!!
