Ike’s Texas dead

Officially, only twenty-seven people died when Hurricane Ike hit Texas on Sept. 13. But hundreds are still missing, at least three-hundred and thirty-one of them, to be exact. Many of the missing could also be dead, if rumors of bodies still being pulled from Galveston Bay are accurate. Some of them may have been trapped on Bolivar Peninsula, but many more also are from Galveston Island.
