Nope but Ivan probably did more damage to Talladega than Katrina since 
Ivan passed very close to it. I'm going to check with Tamra on it. Now 
the Long Leaf ride might be a different story. As Jody posted earlier 
the storm probably went right over the top of Laurel. If not Laurel was 
on the east side of the eye which is the worst side. I remember going up 
after Opal hit and the forest was fine. But I don't believe Opal did 
anywhere the damage this one did.  From what I've heard most of any line 
that runs above ground, power, telephone, telegraph, etc., probably have 
trees all over it so it may be awhile before we hear.
