I hope no one reads into my posts that I do not think the hurricane is a big deal. I know it is a big deal and will affect many folks. If my posts diminished that concern, it is my lack of writing skills, not my intent.

I only started this thread curious how others felt about FOX, CNN, MSNBC and HLN providing exactly the same coverage as the Weather Channel every minute all day.
