Yup! I heard one woman admit that she didn't believe the intensity of the hurricane when the warning went out. She said she'd know better next time! So will the rest of us as well as all the first responders and help agencies... let's hope. I think we should all be prepared for something equally as devastating so that we don't need immediate help, like some of the people you see on TV. We need to accept some of the responsibility for ourselves instead of waiting for help because it may just NOT come in time... or some people may just get in the way of any rescue, like some of the looters did, shooting at the rescue helicopters. THAT kind of mentality I can't understand!
