``We are all shellshocked,' said Stewart, 47, with the city clerk's office. ``We are all going to be like deer in the headlights for many years to come. That's our new reality.'

That's exactly the way it is.........it takes a long time to get over a natural disaster.

BTW I spoke with my cousin and his wife last nite. His wife is native Floridian. She says the kind of hurricane seasons you guys are having now and last year is more normal......not for the past 15 years but for when she was a kid. At that time, hurricanes coming as early as July was fairly routine. Apparently, for the last 15 years, the state has been in a drought and the hurricane season much less severe. Given this scenario, she knew this year was starting to play out like last year........lots of rain and no drought.

If she's right, then it may be the way things will be like this for a while........which, unfortunately, may mean more hurricanes than many new arrivals [the past 15 years] to the state are used to.
