Good luck, Billy, and all our South Florida owners.

I'd love to hear any news from Sanibel and Captiva once things settle down and you've had a chance to look around, Billy. News-Press is reporting "No damage on Sanibel" as of 7:30AM this morning, and here's hoping that's the case. http://www.news-press.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20051024/WEATHER01/51022028/1075

Having spent nearly a full year rebuilding our Captiva condo, we're just hoping we don't have to do this all over again.

Thanks, and good luck!

I hope Betty Solis who was at SegwayFest DC, and is a tour operator in Mexico, is OK! And her 40+ Segs are high and dry!

I'm also concerned about Richard Griffin. It looked (from the maps I saw at noon) like Wilma whipped right over Ft. Lauderdale this morning.

I've heard from Richard - he said that they weren't expecting the storm to be this bad. Lots of damage and lights out, but he's ok (and has his generator running). Now, all of you guys with the nor'easter, I hope you're staying warm.

Billy, have you guys come thru ok?
My friends in Fort Lauderdale really got hammered. They were on the 5th floor of their condo on the beach.
Thinking of you guys, and wish I was there to help.
