Some days ago I was talking about the coming storm (almost here as I type this) and about people's reactions and over reactions.
So here is an example of the difference between being prepared and going nuts.
I was talking to my brother who also lives in Florida but 300 miles north of me. He has a friend who jumped into the car with his family and hit the road with no particular direction. The storm was still three days away form theoretically reaching his area and they don't live too close to the shore to be worried, but he just left the house and ran out of the state.
Now he calls my brother to tell him they are lost in the middle of nowhere, low on gas and one of the kids is sick. My brother, on the other hand, cleaned the backyard and secured the windows and stayed home.
Seriously, in a storm you are much safer surrounded by walls than inside a car on the road.
Don't lose your heads, people.
