I live just north of Orlanod so my house will get some but not what Tampa will get. Unfortunatly I have to drive to Tampa in the hurricane. I have no option. I was gonna leave tonight but thats kinda impossible with it hitting then, and now I dont have a place to stay... so I am gonna leave at like 4am tomorrow and probably be one of the few people allowed to pass through the road blocks...

If you dont know already, Im a US Marine and my unit is in Tampa... so I guess I am off to save some people this weekend and I am glad to do so.

After I get done in Tampa, I may go by the datacenter and try and save some of the servers if it gets bad... (or at least the Pipe server...hehe..)

You're a good man, saving our server. Good luck with the weather and come back with plenty of stories.

When you're saving Pipe, could you save Nifty, too?

I'm not worried about the servers. I have a backup. ;-)

I see that Charley's going to be passing through Orlando, so I hope you guys are well.

Looks like Tampa's not going to get the brunt of the storm, but Orlando's expected to get hurricane force winds. Godspeed and hope all goes as well as possible!

Was just watching CNN...

They show Orlando right in the path and say that Orlando can expect a "pretty good bump" in the next hour.

Hope no one is standing by those beautiful penthouse windows!

Hang in there guys.
