Harvey played a much more sinister game with the people of Texas.
Okay, that I can give it. I thought there was more warning than 2.5 days, if thats the case then yeah they did do the right thing by not evacuating otherwise you're right it would have been a mess.

And this was the first forum I'd ever joined. And won't do it again. Why? People suck. That's why. Next time some bad stuff happens to you, I hope people don't help you, but bust balls like you are doing. Worst natural disaster in Houston's history. And going on sanctimonious rants on a camaro forum is a real big help. Respond with whatever. I don't care. I'm done. need4camaro. You suck.
Apologies! - Just as a side note though I've been through Houston a good few times though.
