Mike:
 A pretty good journal! Thanks for the link. But I do question his self
promotion and wonder how much of this was in his desire to stay during the
storm? He mentioned several times about how he and "model" girlfriend will
need new jobs after this. Like too many of the news people, just unnecessary
people adding to the burden of the storm. Keeping a network up is hardly a
necessity for civilization!
 Have you looked at his pictures? They posted several hundred and I have not
looked at them all?
