Thanks, man. WLOX is back up, and the news is stark. This section has helicopter footage of Hwy. 90 and the Point in Biloxi.

Been trying the google name game matching "ocean springs" with various key words, but little concrete info yet. There's some blog info, but so far there are still many more questions than answers. If I come across any solid OS-material, it'll be linked in this journal.

Just called it, it's being checked for trouble. I'll keep trying till it gets through or I pass out from lack of sleep, whichever comes first. ;)
