OK , Smart Guy, how, if the building and contents is STILL THERE, BUT the 3rd story and 2 nd stories are not spread and just a bit jumbled. Large and very tall [ 100 foot high ?] trees are BROKEN at anywhere from the lower third, around the middle and anywhere else of the length of the trees in the neighborhood, AND "point" in every direction!!!!! it is scattered on the ground, bulldozers pushed some of the structure off the road and yet most of the support posts remain. Could this have been some tornadiac activity?? There have been tornados during past hurricanes and "tropical storms". What do you say experts...do you say like those companies, State Farm, Allstate etc. How does 1 washing machine of 3 near its original position, the others in different directions etc.?? 40 to 100 feet away? All having been enclosed in a FEMA approved laundry room? Oh , I have lived in and through about 10 hurricanes from the 1930's....how about you and the totally inexperinced claims people from Iowa,Ill., Arizona, etc. who've never seen an area hit by the eye of a hurricane---this one the second in almost exactly the same path as Camille. Maybe the annual bonuses caused a problem in trying to know the truth...when there does not appear to be imperical PROOF there was NO wind damage, just that there was some flooding in the area...ergo,[and I quote the St. Farm claim person. "If it got wet,we won't give you a penny."
