Avatar journeyman Registered: 01/05/04 Posts: 49 Loc: USA	I'd like to add a story to this. My nineteen year old grandson evacuated from the Orange, TX area (East of Houston for those not familiar). Their destination was to be Dallas. Twenty hours later he contacted other family to say that they still had about another 10 hours of travel at the pace they were going. Just to give you an idea of how fast the traffic was moving; he got out of the car and walked for about 45 minutes...then caught up with the car he was traveling in and got back into it. They were still traveling when the storm came onshore. I'm wondering if the "live & learn" factor will take over and a lot of people who spent the hurricane in their cars will decide not to be as cautious for the next storm? _________________________ Avatar
