Here's to the Baron !! A great mind and pioneer. He will probably chuckle and roll over in the grave on this one. Hurricane..No Name..No Radar...Just Ambition . Meanwhile..the Lemmings will gas up and run to other parts of the swamp where they know no one and have no friends. Hurricanes have never been the problem..but moreso, a natural balancer.

I'm not quite sure what you are saying/mean. Can you explain it better?

Sure..Baron Collier was an explorer and businessman..sorta like Teddy Roosevelt. He capitalized on things like weather and other disturbances. Basically the guy had some drive and no fear. Probably would welcome a hurricane as an oppurtunity, and not an excuse to piss and moan about doom and gloom.

Your post has my husband chuckling and shaking his head in agreement. You see he works for none other than BARRON COLLIER COMPANIES!!

Do you work for the company or perhaps are related to the family in some way?????????

They are great people to work for. My husband has been there since 1989 (director of IT) and loves what he does.

Be safe Jim,

Linda
