Luis and all..........we have had some laughs with the cold and stuff but Luis in an off-handed way reminded my of the fish farmers problems around here. The Tampa Bay area is the largest concentration of ftropical fish farms in the world......not according to Mike but the tropical fish industry........the 'tropical fish' are inponds that are OUTSIDE.........they will lose $1,000's and $1,000's of dollars each this weekend. They can cover the ponds and most do but that's not going to stop the temp from going to say 65-68 for 2-3 days...........DEAD TROPICAL FISH!...............it's an on-going problem here in the Tampa Area.....every year!!!!!! The problem is not a one day drop........the ponds are deep enouhg to combat that.....the problem is 2-3- 4 days.....the ponds never recover the heat and keep getting colder and of course the fish will continue to die for weeks after as a direct result of the COLD!!! ....wanna buy a fish farm in Tampa????? ......anyway......have a great weekend..........!!!!!
