Seems like Australia can't catch a break - the floods, the cyclone and now the fires. Thinking of you all.

Luckily I am about 800kilometres south of it. We had 3 stores in the area though. One is still down due to power loss but the others are ok. Luckily the worst of the cyclone didn’t hit any of the heavily populated areas. It did however completely wipe out some of the smaller towns. In particular a lot of farming areas were completely destroyed. The banana farmers can’t catch a break. They lost their entire crops in 2007 and it has now happened again. Many were heavily financed to get through the last loss and now they are without an income for another year. The area produces 90% plus of the countries bananas as well as a significant percentage of the sugar cane. Lots of luxury boats ended up piled in a mess on the shore. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nU1TAxHtFqg From: Erik Goldoff [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, 3 February 2011 6:45 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Some thoughts for your DR Plan Wow, now I saw in the news a record cyclone hitting the Aussie coast … you still safe and sound ?

I want to help others as much as possible as it really is a horrible thing to have to go through. We have recovered very quickly imo and the systems we did have in place helped us to do that. But we could have avoided huge amounts of pain if we had better DR systems and plans in place.
