The people here will rebuild. They don't have any choice. The land here is either straight up or down in a deep valley with a river of creek flowing through it. That why we lost so many roads. There's no choice but to build along the streams.

And the taxpayers aren't paying for this, we aren't getting jack shit from this do nothing useless government. Fema better stear clear of Appalachia, folks here are about ready to lynch them. Folks here are taking care of their own. Local church's and civic orgs are doing all the work with a lot of help from private groups outside the area.
