In other disasters in the past, the problem has been logistics, they have left trucks sitting at holding areas away from the disaster area with the cargo undelivered. In this case, where the do not have to deal with closed highways and streets, the delivery logistics should be pretty simple, even for FEMA. I would guess that a lot of the trucks are not gov issue, but contracted. But I have also read about great stores of supplies that FEMA has tucked away. *********** WaterLily *********** " Do I dare Disturb the universe?" -- T. S. Elliot, Love Song of J.
