I know there is already a topic on this, but I decided to start a new one in case people miss the post on the other thread. If any of you mods want to move this post to that thread, feel free...
Anyway, I spoke with Justin last night as he arrived in Memphis which was around 11pm EST. He made it there safely and was most likely spending the night there after being picked up from the airport.
He wanted me to thank all of you for your help and thoughts while he gets through this and to let you know that he really appreciates it and that you guys are the best. He had a great time this past weekend and said it was a pleasure to meet all the forum members that took the time to come out and stop by the table. His home, like many others, is without power and it is uncertain when it will be fixed. It could be days, or even weeks so he asks that everyone be patient with him as he will be in very limited contact, and most likely not online at all during this time. Work on masks will also be slowed considerably, as can be imagined, but he assures that everything will resume once some sense of normalcy is established.
These are obviously extenuating circumstances so I hope you all understand the delays incurred by the hurricane. Right now the most important thing for anyone in that area is to be safe and help each other get through all of this. I\'ll probably be talking to him tonight as well as in the days to come so if any of you have any urgent messages to get to him I can relay that information. Just PM me or email me if you want. However, please understand that this is not the time to be asking \"Where is my mask?\" or \"How long do you think it will take to get here?\". I know most of you understand that, but I just wanted to clarify for those of you who don\'t.
We also can\'t forget other forum members who are in that area who may have been affected...is there anybody who has not been accounted for or heard from? I hope everyone is ok and if anyone needs help, perhaps we can all chip in as many have already done so for Justin.
I\'ll keep you updated as I hear from Justin. Thanks again, guys.
