I'm calling. Is the EOC back up and running yet?
Not yet.
Not yet.
So we're hoping-
Yes.
Yeah, exactly. We're getting a lot of calls and we can't be of much help to people.
Well, based off those calls, is there anywhere that still needs sandbaggers yet tonight?
I don't know, just to be honest with you, because we've been just telling them to call back.
We haven't really got taken any information now because the EOC was coordinating all that
and we don't have anything to look up to see where people are at, where they're going or anything.
Okey-dokey.
Okay, bye-bye.
Thanks, bye.
