The Twits.

These are the twits I twitted.

• 10:24 Major flooding reported in my hometown... and *Wednesday's* hometown. Coincidence? #
• 10:29 ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5hUSAqRniLQgPSda1TEcBYrFJbKpwD90CM27O0 for the story of Floodgate 2008 #
• 10:47 They have also evacuated UMFK and sent the students to UMPI. Um... UMFK's on a *hill.* Like, out of Flood Plain level hill. #
• 19:07 I am full of delicious Korean food! Meat is good! And it was free! Who knew? #

Ah, OK. They evac'd the UMFK students so that displaced Fort Kent people could have someplace to go.

...

You'd... think there was a more direct way to handle that, wouldn't you...

Actually ... they moved the students out because the flooding took out the sewage treatment plant and water processing system.

No showers and no safe toilets means boot the students.

Heh. Someone should tell the article Eric linked to ["Classes were canceled and students were moved from the University of Maine at Fort Kent to pave the way for a shelter, where a handful of people took up residence Wednesday night"], but fair enough.

According to another article they were moved out due to lack of good water. They might be using the Gym as a shelter though.

BTW ...

GOOD LUCK!
