[0:00] the storm and uh assess damage and those
[0:03] kinds of things and were you the one
[0:05] that had the story earlier about someone
[0:07] charging $25 for lumber yeah I mean I I
[0:10] don't know what the situation is and I
[0:12] know uh we have Bob Sheets back with us
[0:14] here and Bob I know this is out of your
[0:16] area but you are as informed about the
[0:18] whole overall issue as anybody else is
[0:21] there some kind of law under a state of
[0:23] emergency that people are not allowed to
[0:26] gouge uh in an emergency like this well
[0:28] most uh places they actually pass those
[0:31] local ordinances that uh prohibit that
[0:33] kind of thing it seems to be that that's
[0:36] difficult to enforce we cuz we have
[0:38] reports of people charging $25 for a
[0:41] piece of plywood here in Miami or a 6V
[0:44] battery or a a battery in Miami tonight
[0:46] so we don't know specifically if that is
[0:48] the law here uh I guess well again they
[0:51] have those local kind of ordinances
[0:53] sometimes uh these kind of situations
[0:55] will bring out the best and the worst in
[0:56] people yeah that's true and I think that
[0:58] we were talking here that in some way
[1:00] we're seeing some of the best in people
[1:01] here in South Florida tonight we're
[1:03] pleased to see that we did not get from
[1:04] you we were with you just a few minutes
[1:06] ago the latest distance just so we can
[1:09] go ahead and and and actually pin this
[1:11] thing down in terms of the distance of
[1:12] the center from us here well the center
[1:14] is now 150 mi from Miami and so moving
[1:19] at 15 M hour that would be 10 hours so
[1:22] that would be uh I guess about 8:00 a.m.
[1:24] that puts us at 8:00 a.m. so I mean
[1:26] obviousl
