Where are the caves mentioned by V Alfred Gray for his "poor people"?????????? ......... every island should have at least two or three caves for serious evacuation ....... most of these shelters will not hold up ......... just like last year

I hope they have the satellite radios working in the family islands.
And, please, please stop making these poor island folk store keepers from having to do VAT.
Another devastation in our southern islands will cause everyone to just give up.
