Everything’s coming up Milhouse?
11:55 CT. Got a burst of email so it looks like T-Mobile is getting coverage back online. This is an excellent sign. Perhaps this blog post will make it out. Still no power and it’s humid as hell and in the upper 80s. Power is likely to be out for days, perhaps weeks. A couple of neighbors have generators which we can hear humming. Galveston is a wreck, as apparently is downtown. Cleanup will be massive. Ike wasn’t intense but instead massive. Few reports of looting or criminal behavior. Exiles on Runnells Street report they have power but most of Houston is in the dark. It will be a long haul back, but deaths are under 5. All good signs. Will cover this more in an oped in the New York Sun on Monday assuming I can get a column written on limited laptop juice and my Verizon wireless broadband service is working.
