If not, then they need to be, because this could be there redemption. I don't know if they will because three canes is tough to handle..

i think they're ready (in FL at least)......FEMA has a better working relationship with Floridian officials from what I've seen than other states (like all the other states). But we shall see.

Please don't take this as a flame, nor political statement...
just my view in reply to the question of whether FEMA is prepared for Wilma.

Since when have we Floridians required FEMA to be prepared for this stuff?
We ought to know better!

It is not the job of FEMA to prepare us.
We need to look after ourselves, family, neighbors, town, county and state... in that order.

I just don't believe it should matter if FEMA is prepared...
The more important question is..
"are the people/individuals in the storm's path?"
