    They used to(maybe still do) refer to Jamaica as before Gilbert and after. It was devastating, but yet they rebuilt and survived. I spoke with many residents who lived through Gilbert and for some it was truly a terrifying experience.

    Yes, everyone was terrified. We all had the same experience. Gilbert cut a line across the island from Kingston to the the Negril beach. The eye passed right over head and the sound of the wind was truly indescribable.

    And for those of us who experienced it, it will always be known as before Gilbert and after Gilbert...
