That made me ill just looking at the pictures... remember one back in NY in the 70s, still have pictures. It took down Telrexes... I guess the best way to look at it is that it could have been much w

This is terrible! Very sorry for anyone that has to go through just looking at the destruction. Had my share of similar damages, but just on one tower. The only solution is to have inserted heating c

Dave is still without power. He hosts his own website, so it's available only when he runs his generator to warm the house and cool the fridge. Last I heard, they told him he *might* get power back b

Thanks to all for the kind words. While this is pretty devastating, Matt and the KC1XX team is planning to be back with some big improvements over the old setup. There will be quite a bit of cleanup
