When I visited they had an attitude, not unlike New Orleans, that somehow by magic they would never take a direct hit from a hurricane. Now, I don’t wish ill on the Jamaican people, but pardon me if I have a certain lack of confidence in their ability to work together.
I think it’s called voodoo
nationwidenewsnetwork.com is still on the air, and handling a call-in show quite efficiently, despite the fact that they lost a piece of the studio roof. Quite a variety of comments, ranging from officials, to some woman complaining that her old man was sleeping off the prior night’s ‘festivities’ while she was left to deal with the hurricane. They’re still about an hour and a half out from the high point of the storm, but hanging together reasonably well at the moment.
