[meteorite-list] OT_ Irene

[Michael Bross]

Yes, sorry...
I thought it was 1993, mistyped, but it was 1992.
I went to Miami a couple days after Andrew.
Some parts, especially poor neighborhoods with
trailers etc... were devastated.

Andrew was august 92.....
Met my wife the day after it, getting on an ARMY ship in Tampa. Was supposed 
to fly to Key West that day. Of course that would have been a rough flight. 
Drove to Tampa and met the ship which had fled the keys to Tampa ahead of 
the storm.
Fun times.
