the thing that made this tornado so deadly (in casualties) is helped by the fact that it demolished the joplin hospital. -- nm - tRuMaN May 23, 07:50
(People always say they don't want to move to Florida because of hurricanes, but at least we know they're coming and can get out of the way.) - JaxSean May 23, 06:36 8
- even with tornadoes, you get more warning than something like an earthquake. So by those calcs, the west coast is the worst place. -- nm - loosilu May 23, 07:07 7
  - Yeah, I will take our earthquakes over the tornadoes -- nm - Bacon May 23, 07:09 6
    - I'll take neither, thank you. - JaxSean May 23, 07:38
    - see I'm the opposite and it is for the reason you said - I grew up with tornados - earthquakes scare me to death -- nm - Epiphany May 23, 07:23
    - really? they affect far more people. -- nm - loosilu May 23, 07:10 3
      - I think there is less fear of the familiar. It's not necessarily rational. -- nm - psilotum May 23, 07:19 1
        
        that's what I'm thinking. I've read that snowstorms kill far more people than any of those kinds of disasters, but no one in the northeast - loosilu May 23, 07:20
      - I have only been in one over mag 7 a bunch of smaller ones. Some 5's. - Bacon May 23, 07:13
