A few random notes in the aftermath of Frances:

It was good to read a couple of fellow bloggers back on board today. Tommy posted at his Sticks of Fire site after an active weekend in Tampa. He also notes a wicked thief taking advantage of the kindness of others, a so-called "person of the cloth" at that. Also, to say that Dave's experience as a result of Frances was interesting would be a serious understatement. You can read it for yourself at spacecoastweb: blog. Great to read both are safe and sound, and hope you will keep Dave's in-laws --- as well as all who have suffered through both Charley and Frances --- in your thoughts and prayers.

And there is a note that Florida Politics will resume posts Thursday after a break due to the storm. Was beginning to get really concerned there...
