Whew, just got to checking this after tennis ha ha.
I feel like I find a lot of people online that live in Florida, though not often all of those 3 categories! :P
Where do you live in Florida?
I haven't ever had to evacuate- I live inland in central Florida, and the last time I've had to miss school due to a hurricane was back in like....2nd grade. So 2005. There also hasn't been a direct hit in the region (tampa) where I live for say, ~80 years. In fact the local newspaper said it's the most overdue place to get hit by a hurricane.
Also the wiki DID die like a year ago, but I'm working with someone else to 'try' to make it up to date.
(Filling in a year of cards, events and poses is going to be a near impossible task)
I'll be sure to take you on that offer chaos- sometimes I stare at the 'sound effects' that are put into card names and I simply don't know to do.
On Yukiho's voice, I'm sort of ambivalent on it. While Yurina Hase's voice was beautiful in so many songs, Azumi's was the one I, so to speak, 'grew' up with in the anime. Neither voice portrays Yukiho better I feel- and thus I love them equally.
(dear lord these verification messages always get me)

I live more to the South, close to Miami. I've been to Tampa for Spring Break once and it is a very great place, I will admit. The drive was kinda lengthy, though.
I do agree that there hasn't really been a major storm or hurricane in a while. Hell,, Katrina WAS the last major hurricane we had, at least according to my memory. Odd, considering that we had a generator just in case of another hurricane. :P

My parents really don't care. They were like: "Oh look, a hurricane. Welp, lets bring to plants inside, the grill inside, and prepare to eat campbell's soup for a few days." They we just sat on the patio and watched buckets of rain fall. That was a long time ago though.
I haven't been to Miami in a long time- we went to see the Sony Ericcson open or something when I was 7. I know it's known as the liberal seat of Florida, but I'm not really sure how it compares to Tampa. Are there any cons there? I know here we have Metrocon (Where i picked up an Annindoufu art book- most worth $37 I have ever spent.)
(I think I need to keep a little notepad with all of these confirmation questions)

Last time there was a hurricane blackout, my family had to start campfires to get actual cooked meals.
I know that Miami has Supercon, which usually happens around the summertime, and Animate Miami, which is around early fall. I want to go to this year's Supercon REALLY badly, though.

My family would probably be in the same situation- as we basically never use the grill now.
This summer is probably going to be one of the most carefree I've had since high school has started- and Metrocon is during then too.
Metrocon has always been sort of 'eh' to me.
My sort of fandom isn't really represented that well there... (IM@S, some mahou shoujous, etc)
How is it down there? I know I never see anything at Metrocon other than merchandise related to IM@S, and even then it's not very popular. (Hence why I could get that art book)
