And I thought I had problems... You know, you could grow in bomb
shelters and get some of those 'solar tubes' (a lot of them). Wouldn't
have to pay for electricity to run the lights that way.

I am so sorry to see all the damage. If I were in the States, I would surely buy something to help you rescue the situation.

You are all obviously using an HTML compliant browser like Firefox.
Good for you! Spit on the toes of the great emperor and gain some
internet security in the process. I had the same problem. Internet
explorer is renowned for not barfing on poorly formed HTML, it will
display anything. I could see the page in IE. Actually I think it is a
javascript problem, not an HTML problem.

Could be. I didn't have a problem viewing it with IE. That's
version 6.0, service pack2 on an XP. All of those little bits are
important, because although it is easy to write javascript, it is hard
(very hard) to write it so that it works with all versions of all
browsers. It has to be worth a lot of money to you (say, if you're
amazon.com or ebay) to go through that much trouble. Most places (my
workplace included) just try to support the most common browsers (we do
mozilla/firefox and IE).

This is why any website I actually work on for my own purposes
sticks to plain HTML tags and maybe a CGI script or two. It is boring.
But I'm boring. Don't need dancing bears or singing frogs (that would
be cool, actually), and most people forgive you if you don't have slick
graphics as long as you give them information in a useable manner. If I
need the fancy stuff I hire a professional (or my coworker, who is a
prodigy with that sort of stuff). Besides, I don't even have time to
repot, when am I going to work on the website? *grin*

Wendy, I have no idea why you're having trouble seeing Bill's Hurricane

PS - I posted just one of my hurricane photos over on abpo, but I think it's
dropped off by now.

I could not see them either and I usually don't have any
problems. Rob's thumbnail directory addresses worked well.

Good Luck to all who are working on righting their gh, Rob
included.

Rob, you did hear the ski season has started in Colorado.
Loveland Ski area opened last weekend. How far behind can
Michigan be?

I really wish people would stop saying that... *grin*. It makes me
nervous. Contrary to popular belief, it can be quite temperate in lower
Michigan, even in the winter. Of course it can also be quite horrible.
I remember one christmas that I was outside in 70 degree weather. I
remember another late december where I had to spend the night in my
office because while I could see my car in the parking lot, I could only
see the very top.... It spent three days in that parking lot.

I have several working circuits in the greenhouse now. Still
waiting on a part for the furnace. Still pouring kerosene into the jet
engine portable heater, I have yet to lose a finger to it.

Hmm. I was able to see the pix from all the available links, including
Bill's original one. But then, he sent a link directly to some of us down
here, and that was no problem either.

I'm just glad they worked. Don't strain my brain with tech talk!

Yes - I know your temperate Michigan. I grew up in Temperate
Wisconsin and married in temperate Illinois. Just before we
moved here we shoveled snow out of our temperate drive that was
more than waist deep and I am not a short woman.

Good Luck Charlie Brown. They tell me the Great Pumpkin will
visit MI this year.

Hi Bill, I can see them now, sure is a lot of damage. Suppose
you have to replace all the mainframe structures. A lot of work but
glad to see the plants look stable.
The insurance companies must be crying!
Good luck to you & all the growers that experienced this divistation.
Btw...Kenni was kind enough to send me some pics along with yours.
