From: "Mark"
Escape routes are good. I'm about a mile and a half from a due west
interstate, I presume though that that mile and a half is as good as 500
miles if everyone leaves at once and further presume that it would be a day
late and a dollar short that the authorities changed all lanes of the
interstate to west only. Hence, my previous "solution" of the
roof - I'd rather stare it in the face than watch it coming in the
rear-view mirror of my gridlocked car.
