You may be talking about windstorm (and the birth of Citizens Insurance Corp) after Andrew in '92

I still can't believe residents are okay with paying a fee on their policies to subsidize the uber-wealthy and their 3rd beachfront vacation mansions. Because they just can't afford to pay full rate on windstorm for that $11 million house (that they paid cash for).

Sh*t, they should give me the keys to use it when they're not there in summer. I'd even clean up after myself smile
