"Andrew-like" translates to miles and miles of flattened homes, apartments, schools, stores, and public buildings along the Mississippi coast. I lived in SoFL and saw the Andrew aftermath....it took literally YEARS to clean it all up. So sad.

Any news from Pascagoula? Home of Trent Lott, and site of my grandfather's grave (at the little Catholic cemetery). Black Irish humor break: Granddad would probably enjoy floating away, old seafaring shipbuilder that he was. Trent Lott would rather stay put, no doubt.

The nasty little story about Andrew was that thousands were killed but NOAA reported only a couple of dozen,massive cover up there.

...well, I could say for certain that Lott's HAIR would stay put, no matter what....
