I feel for you guys up there. I feel guilty that I have luxuries here in the midwest.

Got hit with a Nor-Easter this morning. Adding insult to a bad injury. Been at this local for the past 33-4 year's. Never saw anything around here like the tide's of Sandy. Living here taught us to be prepared for the worst at all time's. And we were ready. We got stuck in the house between tide's. The tide never receeded and came up so we could'nt leave. The winds were 80-85mph gusting to 115-120 mph. The proximity to the bayfront got us.
Mehh.....We'll get over it.

See some picture's in the Off Topic section. I'll post a few more soon.
After seeing first hand what some people lost......We'll be fine, it's going to take a little while to straighten out though.

Thanks' for your concern

That was quite a video you posted. I grew up not far away on Larcmont Harbor in Mamaroneck NY and went through Camille and a number of other pretty fierce hurricanes. Filled a lot of sandbags and pumped a lot of water out of our basement. But seeing your pictures of the cabin crusiers on top of each other and the houses missing, I really feel for you as it is much worse than what I had experienced. More like New Orleans after Katrina. I went down there with a church group to rebuild houses and it was also mighty bad, a lot like what you have gone through. I wish you all the best in your recovery. --Bob
