Killer Tomato

Apparently, it’s not a good idea to locate a research facility for highly infectious pathogens in a tornado-prone section of Kansas: http://www.spokesman.com/stories/2009/jul/27/report-blasts-homeland-securitys-site-pick-for/ Go figure.

I can’t see or hear the word tornado without thinking of my then three-year-old son running indoors on a blustery spring day. “A tomato is coming!” he yelled.

Have you ever experienced a tornado or other natural disaster? (Mt. St. Helen’s doesn’t count unless you lived in the blast zone at the time of the eruption.)
