The recovery effort has moved at lightning speed compared with Hurricane Andrew in 1992. Insurance claims are moving faster, search and recovery efforts wrapped up in three days and supplies are flowing into the community and being distributed with greater efficiency.

And it's all the Bush Brothers fault. :-\

"Seven of Charlotte County's schools were destroyed, but Bush said classrooms, text books and buses are being brought in from around the state so every student will be in a classroom Aug. 30 - just seven days after the originally scheduled first day."

This isn't correct - I'm pretty sure school started in Charlotte on Aug. 9th, same as here in Lee County where I am. The kids only had four days of school before the hurricane. Lee County School Board is supposed to meet today to see if they can reopen the schools Monday. (I hope so!)
