Just some of the issues the the fancy guys in the ivory towers
overlooked: 1. the starting place - that island had yet to get any
services and had no water, gas, electricity and the mess was all over
the streets. 2. After leaving this forgotten island, they move to
the next worst place - both being on the north side of the storm with
the strongest winds.

I venture guess someone finally flew him in a helicopter over the route
to bring him to reality. Or got a film to him in the nick of time.

Unless you have been in such of mess - total mess it is - you have no
idea. I've lived a month on generators. A pacific storm. Two weeks
because of the massive Earthquake. Oh - for those who watched the
Baseball game - San Fran was in the world series and another disaster
occurred, this time on the East Coast.

Maybe Ivory tower guys got to see a video over their catered lunch.

Where is the help and the trailers for those who lost their homes and
were run out of their apartments with no place to go...

Sad times indeed.

They cancelled the marathon. Holy crap. What took them so long? Where
were all the thousands of people going to eat? Sleep? Buy gas and
essentials? To let it go so far was just a reflection of the state of the
governments. All of them. Imbeciles.

The death toll is yet to be set. There will be death in the gas lines. In
the looting. In the coming cold. It ain't over until it's over, and that
is a good way off at this pace. They could have already had 2800 houses lit
up with the 7 generators they have at Central Park for the Marathon.

Un Believable.
