   Neil Frank and Bob Sheets both moved on from being director of   
   the National Hurricane Center (with nationwide visibility when a   
   major hurricane hit the USA and news organizations flocked to   
   offer coverage) to being a (probably much higher paid) weather   
   forecaster for the television industry.   
      
   I believe it was Frank who told Texans that it was best for   
   Hurricane Rita to be a Category 5 while over the Gulf and   
   foresaw it would lose strength before landfall.

   The World Trade Center towers MUST rise again,   
   at least as tall as before...or terror has triumphed.
