Re: Refugees/Evacuees, whatever

I just heard none were coming here. Am not sure if that is so. They would
freeze up here and it is a long way from home. I think they want to stick
around and find family and quite frankly who can blame them. Further
separation by such a great distance makes no sense and how would they make
it back that far.
