Slashdot Asks: Are You Preparing For Hurricane Sandy?

Posted by timothy on from the just-another-way-to-say-abrasive dept.

Forecasters are tossing around words like "unprecedented" and "bizarre" (see this Washington Post blog entry) for the intensity and timing of Hurricane Sandy, which is threatening to hit the east coast of the U.S. early next week. Several people I know in the mid-Atlantic region have been ordering generators and stocking up on flashlight batteries and easy-to-prepare foods. Are you in the projected path of the storm? If so, have you taken any steps to prepare for it? (Are you doing off-site backup? Taking yourself off-site?)

    (on the bright side, I finally get to side with all the europeans and aussies gripe and moan in the US-centric articles)

    Is this a joke?

    Have you somehow missed seeing all the worthless Aussie non-stories that flood Slashdot these days?

    Christ, I know Australians who now moan about the lack of non-Aussie stories on Slashdot.
