You don't know me, I think (you're on my friendsfriends list). I just wanted to say that Chapel Hill, NC was hit by Hurricane Fran a few years ago badly enough that we had to boil water for a few days and power was out for two weeks. We're three-four hours from the coast by car, so the fact of being inland isn't enough...

Not that you should panic.

p.s. Congrats on the PhD!
