Evacuation information.
I just spoke with my Uncle, he lives in Beaumont, TX. Beaumont is now in the direct path of the storm.

For those of you who are unaware, city officials have "timed" out the evac process, atleast in Beaumont they did. They did it by zip code. My Uncle and his family were not allowed to leave until 9:00 P.M last night. They could only go ONE direction, meaning they couldn't make it here to Austin, so they headed to another family members home in Brownwood.

For all of you who think this is a nightmare, it is... however, city and state officials are doing the best they can to remove MILLIONS of people along the hurricane projected path.

My Uncle was NOT stupid, he just could NOT leave until it was HIS turn.

If everyone left at the SAME time this would be 10 times worse.

While I am not saying that our governer isn't a DUMBASS ( cuz he is ) many, many people are involved in this evac process, not just governer Mo'Fo.

Just enlightening the masses a bit.

That is all.
