I just pulled this statement off the Flying J homepage and thought it might be of use for reference...

Flying J facilities in Houston and New Caney, TX escaped damage from Hurricane Rita and are currently being refueled by Flying J tankers. Flying J's facility in Orange, TX sustained some damage from the storm and remains closed currently. A team of electricians has been dispatched to assess the extent of the damages...

more to come as it is released

Good! The trucker's will be able to refuel and stores will be able to be restocked. Once Galveston and Houston ports are up and running, commerce can start again.

Isn't private enterprise great?

This is good news. Once the trucks roll again, everything will return to normal.
