To those in Katrina's path...GET OUT! (Cat. 5 HURRICANE!!!!)

[greatdarkwing]

OK Guys...I just woke up 10 minutes ago, turned on the news and saw Katrina is now a cat. 5 hurricane.

MY ADVICE IS TO LEAVE IMMEDIATELY!

I was 7 years old when Andrew, a category 5 hurricane, blew through Miami and it is still an image that haunts me. Storms this big are not a joke. They will kill. You will not have power or weeks. You will be flooded for weeks. Please listen to my honest advice and get out.....I'll never forget the sound of a frieght train outside my window for 12 hours that night...and I was only 7 years old....and to this very day I can honestly say it was one of the scariest moments in my life.

Please take my advice and run.....I can not stress this enough....a category 5 DESTROYS. Its not a question of if, but when t will destroy.

Hopefully this thread can convince some of you to leave....
