They went on and on about how a snow storm could shut down DENTK and how could they not have built in Houston. I said what if a big storm shut down Houston and they said that would never happen. :cool:

I'm in IAH now. The airport Marriott has huge fans blasting throughout the building trying to dry out carpets and the elevators are unusable to access rooms. The hotel is swarming with Military staying here to help with recovery.

I imagine much of the city is in a similar state of disrepair and will be for some time.
