Again, speaking for myself, I have been very fortunate to come out of Hurricane Charley with myself, my family, and my personal belongings intact. Friends of mine are not as fortunate..technicians who have contributed to this this list are not as fortunate. Hurricane Frances did to the East Coast what Charley did to the West Coast of Fl. - and the center of the state felt the brunt of both. The Sunshine State is anything but right now.
