All buildings? Well, that would explain why the feds hav been so busy that they coukdn't open the gates to the port, where thousands of containers fill of water, food, and supplies were not getting to the dying people. And so, the feds actually there now report that the people without potable drinking water actually is increasing, as it went from 45 percent of the population a few days ago to 55 percent now.<br /><br />And any of these reports are only guesses, and not good ones, since a news crew went to a town of almost 20,000 only 45 minutes from San Juan, but the townspeople were dismaye that they were amnews crew and not FEMA -- because even that close to the capitol city, that town had yet to see anyone from FEMA, or any troops, or any help at all . . . ten days after the hurricane. <br /><br />Ten days with no water, no food, no electricity, no communication.
