man... *flashes back to the big tornado of 1998* tornados are crazy, scary things. -- nm - TFox Feb 28, 18:41 10
- What I don't understand is why they didn't just strap themselves to some sort of piping using a belt. - Subversive Feb 28, 18:44 1
  - Why didn't they just wave a white flag and surrender to the cyclone? -- nm - Redmond Feb 28, 18:45
- (cyclones are really hurricanes, not tornados.) -- nm - Andie Feb 28, 18:44 2
  - huh. they sound... spinnier. -- nm - TFox Feb 28, 18:45
  - You got your Typhoon, you got your Hurricane and You got your Cyclone -- nm - Redmond Feb 28, 18:44
- the storm is also blamed for deaths in england, portugal and spain. that's horrible. (and why am i just reading this now?) -- nm - Andie Feb 28, 18:42 4
  - Well... a tornado killing 45 in Oklahoma probably wouldn't get all that much coverage in France, would it? -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Feb 28, 18:45 2
    - again, not a tornado. -- nm - Andie Feb 28, 18:46 1
      - I didn't mean it was a tornado, I meant a storm killing 40-odd people half a world away wouldn't get much play in France. - Cuzzin Todd Feb 28, 19:15
  - Because your one hour news broadcast had 59 minutes about Canada's Hockey team? -- nm - Redmond Feb 28, 18:44
