Didn't it occur to someone that something that looks like a pencil
standing on end is going to fall over, if it is hit by a hurricane? :-)


As I recall, most of those exhibits were guy-wired to prevent just that.
Given the damage reports coming in, it must have gotten rougher out there
than onland. Sustained high winds and possible tornado(s)?
