Biltmore village is still underwater. The restaurants will come back if they can get water. Rebuild it and they will come. It is an excellent place to visit. Never been to Rocky's. Sounds like my kinda place. $750 per will cover it, for sure. I'd make my travel plans now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyst Posted October 3 Share Posted October 3 fema and gov has issued stand down orders to private groups. a friend is working disaster relief as a coordinator for a team of 50 responders and is their designated person. the team consists of volunteer firefighters and emt. they let her know what she needs and she is ferrying the stuff from stations and donations to them daily. they've sat on their ass for two days but found back roads in and went to other communities yesterday to finally begin helping. talked to supervisors from Duke Power who are cleaning the roads saying bodies just strewn about but there are tons of aid workers sent in and sitting around. duke power cannot do anything officially to clear the ways but the line crews are opening the roads. line workers are cutting trees off roads, out of the way. but, again, they're saying they can't walk more than 20' without seeing a dead body just rotting there and they're not allowed to touch them. the communications too busy to let anyone know where to get them. they're also being told to stand down because fiber optic lines are up with power lines and to leave power lines in place in the way. groups are asking to just get some D6's to go in there and make routes in via road but are being told it would damage the road for repair later. this is more direct contact with more people working up there. every. single. person.....EVERYONE is saying the government is underwhelming to AWOL on this response. and some of these people went to New Orleans to say it is worse. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boyst Posted October 3 Share Posted October 3 hey @stevestojan... be careful where you think you want to donate. this has been reported all across the region and in every natural disaster. the red cross, united way, all of these big fancy groups come in and take the assts from the people who collected them and have been there from the start. there have been reports they come in and empty local churches, centers, and such in the communities to truck off to other locations away from where they're needed. it's all a big shake down. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feral was intentional, as your love for inept governmental agencies is over the top. You make the average liberal blush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shocking that you take some random post and believe it as fact - “a big shake down.” Is this the same as the lady who claimed Haitians were eating pets and then realized morons believed it so she had to publicly admit she was just lying? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"i am putting on my shoes. i tie my shoes." "i am petting the bunny. i am petting the bunny soft." i mean, seriously... you just discredit this post because why? do you not believe me and the first hand accounts people are telling me? lineman removing bodies tangles in powerlines. running out of body bags. fema on the perimeter and standing down until assessors have taken their bean countines numbers. which part do you not believe? is it personal because you don't believe me? is it because you just don't want to believe? why, stojan? you're not a stupid.
