first off, hello all, my g/f showed me this site during Ivans dreadful track, so Ive only been lurking for s short time now, but I wanted you all to know how much I appreciate all the great up2date information you provide.

now, to reply about the power issues, while I do not have any #'s, I do have 1 thing to add.
FPL had a $250 million emergancy fund for repairs.
they tapped that last week with Ivan, they are now having to pull on credit lines (they have $1 bilion in available credit lines)
with Govorner Bush also promising to do everything he cna to help.

I also wished to add that in Naples the winds are currently 35mph gusting to 50 with a steady rainfall for the past hour.

[edit] my typing skills... are in sore need of a refresher...
