August 25, 200620 yr MIAMI -- The National Hurricane Center says director Max Mayfield will retire in January. The Miami Herald reports that Mayfield told staffers at the center that "no one event has caused this." He has been with the center for over 30 years and quoted Forrest Gump in his announcement: "I'm tired and I want to go home." http://www.nbc6.net/news/9738428/detail.ht..._12420208252006

Excuse me, but I will be taking it over, not Cape. :shifty I don't think Rappaport will get it. Judging by how much better Knabb handles himself when explaining the issues at stake.
