Something I have been considering for a while has now been forced to the top of my schedule by hurricane Frances. This is the first rushed attempt to keep us abreast of our Pixie members during natural disasters and the like. The thought was to have a standing library of maps with members locations when something like this occurred. It would then be posted in a thread to keep us informed of happenings around the people we have come to know and care about. The thought has been in the back of my mind since the flooding last spring in the USA.

I decided I wanted to do this after hurricane Charley and would post a thread to see if there was interest among our members and begin a LONG, SLOW process for the members requesting to be included. Frances has provided the kick in the ass to get this going.

I PMed 19 members that we know are located in Florida during the night, requesting permission and locations, to include them in this first strained attempt. I have only a couple early replies at this hour and will update the map at least twice, if and when the responses come in, today. It is possible some are among the people being evacuated. I am sure these members have other things on their mind at the moment and this is why I felt we had the need to have the prepared library.

Here is where our people are at. Watch the reports and pray for the next 48 hours and hope to see posts from them after the danger has passed.


PS
I'm working on optimum size.

Why do I think some are going to complain these locations aren't more specific so the masses can find their houses?

In this situation, the location of the houses may not be known until Monday.


We hope not.

This is a great idea PF! Thanks so much for doing it. Many places in the country suffer natural disasters and I think it would be great to know where our Pixie family is in the midst of one of them.

We definitely need your prayers here in Floirda. I am looking at being on the side with the worst winds. Just pray hard that we don't lose power. We were so lucky with Chalie.



Oh, and for those wanting to come over. Just PM me for the address.

Thanks for your concern PF.... this is really cool. We'll see if we're located on the map still soon.

:hug:

Thinking about everyone in the path. Keep your heads low and your spirits high. And tell your men to lay on their stomachs...don't want their boners to get hit by a flyin lawn chair!

I’ve saved "666" for her and will have it on the map of Hades.

Thanks for caring you guys

You got our prayers, PR. All of you folks do. PF, I replied to the other thread on my location and I'm still there. Will we ultimately get to see see a world map?

Some of our people are already feeling the effects it seems.

Prophet Reality asked to include his message with this posting of our members as mentioned above.




Steph-
If you can’t mentally transfer the news broadcasts to what is effecting who, print the map on very thin paper and tape it to your TV screen. When the reports come on, the storm will show up in it’s latest reported location.

LMAO

Thank You PF, now I won't have to keep asking where everyone is. Glad you could take some time away from tormenting Steph. LOL

Thank you. Knowing others think it is worth the effort makes it a non-effort.

This is our latest map with just one addition and a little tweeking. There are a number of members, including our Summer, that I have not heard from and one response that was so happy about the map idea, he forgot to give me his location and hasn’t gotten beck to me yet.

At the moment, it is sounding like you will need the boat instead of just the anchor. I’m starting a local drive at all our video stores to have copies of Water World and The Abyss dropped in as soon as Frances has passed.

On a serious note, I really would like to hear about the memories of your Floridian grandparents, when there were only reports AFTER the fact. I have to think that the forecasting system of only knowing you were in the season and watching the cloud formations, made it a slightly different encounter. That could even make fore a good party break. Get a tape recorder and find a couple of the oldest people in your area and get it down before the real peoples experience is gone for ever.

Good luck Peninsula People. Keep your powder dry…………. And everything you can.
