re: #223 klys (maker of Silmarils)

During my Gulf Coast days with the Navy we warded off hurricanes by boarding up, tying down, battening, securing, stowing, ballasting, every last thing on base. That included more than two hundred aircraft.
The best part was that after the hurricane would miss us we then were able to work for another two or three days and nights to undo everything we’d just done - and then paint it.
